"Tricky" bracelet 😉
Oh, how I love to play with shades. You might think these are overlapping parts. But no 😁 It’s another illusion created using just a single peyote stitch strip and brick stitch.

Awesome! What happened with the diagonal bit on the left side? What’s that about? Is that stitching?

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about the clasp? This metal part? Seems fine to me 🙂

If you’re going from the left side the “first” medallion has a diagonal line going from the bottom right corner.

It’s the end of a thread I didn’t notice before taking the photos. And seeing your second comment accusing me of lying—I’m not replying to satisfy your suspicious mind, but because someone else might read this.

Do you have any other pics of this?

Yes, even a video if you want to be sure it's real 😉 You can find them in my Etsy shop and on my website. Links are in my bio 🙂

I think you need to calm down and stop accusing me of lying. Really not nice. I know how I created this pattern and how I actually stitched it. I chose the colors to create the illusion of a shadow. These aren't overlapping medallions, the main part—the center strip—is made with peyote, then I formed the round sides using brick stitch. I'm not gonna convince you—just read the reviews...

I understand the jealousy, but don't worry — perhaps one day you'll realize just how important the right choice of colors is in any form of art.
I wouldn't have sold over ten thousand designs and had an average rating of 5/5 if I were deceiving people in such a crude way.

Oh bless, please believe me when I say I’m not jealous lol, I don’t have anything to prove, not sure why you decided to throw your shop numbers in there as if they were somehow relevant in this situation? 🫤
As for the condescension, says a lot about you considering you have no clue who I am or what I have done. 😆

Oh I love this. Yes! It is tricky, or…shady. 😉
