Dresden Plate Earrings

Instructor: Karen Morris

Class Description:
NEW! You've got to try these rich-looking earrings that are built like an intricately pieced quilt square. Although they look hard, they're relatively quick & easy to make using seed beads and Delicas with needle and thread, and accented with Swarovski crystals.
