Triangle Triptych

Standard

IMG_1378Technically, I always think of triptychs as being some sort of altar piece, usually with Byzantine iconography, but I was striving for an alliteration, and that was the best I could do.  Hey, it’s early!

IMG_1381These bracelets are not yet completed.  They still need to have clasps attached.  I haven’t yet decided if the clasp should be something simple, like a slide lock, or if I want to make them fancier, and use a swanky glass button  as the closure.  In the meantime, they sit calling my name; the siren song needing completion.

These bracelets are also made with Delicas like Red Hots, but instead of being three dimensional, they follow the flat triangle pattern I used in the Tangerine Tango bracelet.  I replaced the drops at the triangle corners with lentils.  I think the lentils work quite nicely – a twist from the usual drops and daggers.

Unlike Red Hots, these are made as components, one triangle at a time.  Then all the little triangles are stitched together into a band.  Thanks to some furry assistants, there are also a few extra pieces laying about.  I am sure I will find them eventually.
