Thank you, Gina, for all you do for us. As a fellow designer, I know how much time and effort goes into your designs, not to mention the countless hours you must spend creating these amazing videos! You are an incredible designer and a wonderful human being!
@@ORCHIDandOPAL I particularly love your mix of bead-types - I'm so inspired right now! I'm about to start examining my entire stash with a fresh view on how I can better combine the bead-types therein when I'm in the design phase...You've already given me an explosion of ideas! Thank you so much for sharing your gifts so very generously, Gina! ❤️ XX
This is a real beauty. I just get so excited when you do a tutorial instead of just the boxing. It makes my day and gets my beading brain thinking. I appreciate you so much. Thank you.
Oh wow this is so pretty. I’m going to order the products I need for it in the morning and make one..love it..thanks so much for taking your time to do this for all of us..
Gina, Gorgeous Necklace!💙💙💙 This a beautiful pattern for the drop component, stunning. Thanks again for another great tutorial. Your designs are always so inspiring. Love 💘and Hugs 🌞
I'm fascinated by the number of different ways you can design a bezel. This one is gorgeous! 👍 Am still doing the bead crocheting ::sigh:: lol. Take care! 🥰🐢
I love this. I'm pretty new to beading, so I don't feel ready to try to make the pendant part, but I am definitely going to try the beaded bugle beads.
Can't wait to make this! I was looking for a way to use the bugles from the beading school box... they are pretty, but I never seem to reach for bugles naturally. This design is so pretty and inspiring!
That's exactly what I am thinking! I always bypass the myrad colour/sized bugles in my stash - but this design has set off a chain explosion of design ideas for me. So I probably won't emerge from my beading room for the next month!! Happy beading : )
What a pretty way to frame my favourite stone, the cushion cut! Thank you very much for the tutorial! (BTW, you omitted the half tilas from the material list. 🙂)
Wow! ❤️ Cushion-cuts are some of the most interesting objects for inspiring creative design - like this! I've come up with some really good ideas in the past - but this is truly unique and OTT beautiful (OTT = Over The Top). I love your inclusion of a variety of bead-types in this project .. It really inspires me to try a fresh approach as to what's in my own bead stash (which is massive..I do have a bit of a 'beading problem', LOL!) - and to try being much more versatile with my design selections! I never just re-create your designs, but I love that you never fail to inspire me to make new and unusual choices in my own love affair with beads. I recently took delivery of an incredible 45.5 carat Cushion Cut Certified Pink-Red Mogok Ruby (18mm x 18mm x 12mm) that I purchased from Myanmar - it's just too beautiful to cover up more of the stone with a beaded bezel than I absolutely must - but with a few tweaks and maybe if I cast some pretty 2-hole beads in engraved Solid 9k Gold (instead of Tila beads)..Hmmm..I can definitely feel that the seeds of a design have been firmly planted here - it's all starting to come together! I'll see how it goes before I try it out with an OTT 80.1ct Peridot, and then a stunning 72ct Aquamarine that both finally arrived just the other day! I'm so excited to begin working with these amazing gemstones...before I purchase some more : ) Thank you so much for posting so much inspiration, Gina - you're a truly gifted bead-artiste and teacher! ❤️ XX

LOL! It seems like the possibilities are endless! Have fun with the crochet, Crys! I've only dabbled in that a little - I love the overall look of it!
@@ORCHIDandOPAL It's turning out the way it's supposed to. It's just not going as fast as I'd like it to...too impatient, I guess. Lol😂
Another great tutorial, thank you Gina.

Muitoooooo lindooooo
Re: the necklace, can you do this stitch to make a bracelet (no folding)? I would love to see a tutorial for that.
Thanks for asking! I'm sure that can be done. :)
Could you use a round rivoli in place of the cushion?
I do think that might work! Thanks for asking, Deb! Feel free to update if you give it a try for others who may be curious. :)
