The picture at left is a G-Clef motif designed by Tomoko Yoshikawa. The pattern is available in her book, "Beads Story,"
This has actually been made for a while, but it was a Christmas gift for the director of our church's bell choir, so I kept it under wraps.
It was a lot of fun to make (I listened to "Oliver Twist" while making it,) and Yoshikawa's documentation is very easy to follow.
Here is another picture on my mannequin.
I've added a link to Yoshikawa's site on the left menu bar.

What an awesome treble clef! Thanks so much for sharing!
I loved the G-clef pendant and would love to make it for my son's music teacher. Yoshikawa's site is entirely in Japanese! Any way I can buy this design pattern?
You are very in luck! The pattern (as well as many others that rock!) are in Beads Story, currently available from this seller on eBay.

Her documentation is quite good. The book is in Japanese, but it's really not to hard to follow the diagrams. Of course, I'm here if you need assistance. I'm more than happy to help.
