Nepal Chain Stitch

In my previous blog is mentioned that I was working on a couple of Mortira vanPelt's tutorials.  Nepal Chain Stitch was the second tutorial I tried.  This is a very pretty stitch, a little fiddly to start, but very rewarding.  First, I made a bracelet with the same loop and toggle as Mortira, then, I made a necklace.  I wanted to incorporate the same flower like toggle in my necklace, but as a pendant.  I tried this, but, it just didn't sit right, as it wasn't rigid enough.  Instead I stitched Brick Stitch around a bead, and attached it in the middle of my necklace.  I think this has turned out quite well.

Here is a link to the tutorial http://inspirationalbeading.blogspot.com/2011/05/beading-tutorial-nepal-chain-stitch.html.   Mortira vanPelt's tutorials are so easy to follow and great inspiration.  Thank you again Mortira.
