Working with them takes a bit of getting used to. The holes are large so they'll accept multiple passes of thread easily, but they tend to flip around and show the "wrong" end until you get the pattern going. I've got designs spinning in my head, but when I try to figure a thread path, I'm finding you just "can't get there from here" in some situations. I'm loving the challenge! I don't know how many years I've said "If only there were small beads with two holes!" Now there are and I'm having a blast.
The pattern is available at BeadPatternsBoutique and The Bead Coop.
I love this! The possibilities are endless with these beads, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteI love that you named it Vera. :)
Thanks Wendy. I've got several designs swirling in my head, but finding an acceptable thread path is proving more challenging than I thought. :)
