Sew Passionate Crystal Pendant

Tammy Powley
This pendant is for anyone who is passionate about needle-arts, especially sewing. I designed it after receiving one of Katie Hacker's Katiedids jewelry components, which are manufactured by Beadalon. You will need the following tools and supplies:

1 - 25mm 2-hole Round Katiedids component
1 - 1/2 inch Button
1 - 30mm x 12mm Silver-plated "passion" charm
14 - 4mm Clear AB crystal beads
24 - Size 11 Clear AB seed beads
1 foot .015 mm Beading wire
1 - 5mm Jump ring
1 - 2 x 2mm Crimp Beads
Crimping pliers
Chain-nosed pliers
Wire cutters
Tacky Glue

I picked up the "passion" charm at some craft store sale ages ago, but many jewelry suppliers offer similar charms. You can find out more about Katiedids at Katie Hacker's blog.
