Mardi Gras Feathered Mask Bead Pattern
Free Bead Pattern

Free bead pattern "Mardi Gras Feathered Mask"

I used Delica beads to make this feathered mask bead pattern. In the mask section I used DB 281 for the purple, DB 042 for the gold, DB 202 for the white, DB 010 for the black and DB 656 for the green. For the feathers I used DB 274 for the green, DB 073 for the purple and DB 160 for the yellow. I intended this bead pattern to be a single panel, to be embellished with crystals and other fun beads, but it can be doubled at the bottom then folded in half to make an Amulet bag, if you wish. Either, way, laissez le bon temps roulette (traditional Cajun/Mardi Gras saying meaning "Let the Good Times Roll).
