I was rather enchanted with Sonia Davis's "Coiled Kumihimo Bangle" which appeared in Beadwork Magazine, the December/January 2017 issue. I don't really enjoy kumihimo though, so I thought about how to change it for my own use. I ended up deciding to use tubular brick stitch around wire instead and accent it with glass pearls. The kumihimo project probably weaves up a lot faster than my version, but I didn't really mind. These are size 11/0 seed beads, so it could have been worse!
Since it was really the construction of the bangle, with the three segments that overlapped, that intrigued me rather than the stitches, I definitely owe a debt of gratitude to Sonia for such a cool design!
