Glad you added the seed beads on each side of the bugle bead, most people don't know to do this to keep the sharp edges of the bugles from cutting the threads.
Good afternoon Ms Homfray, thank you 🙏🏾 so much for your easy step-by-step bead stitching your teaching so understanding and easy. Thank you 🙏🏾. Much peace & Love ❤️
amazing! i received a printed fabric purse and have a bunch of seed and bugle beads (i now know what these are called! thank you for improving my vocabulary!) and will use them to add some bling to my dull purse 👛 💎!!! thank you!
Can you make a lengthy video about types of fabric to use for bead/sequin embroidery and demonstrate it on the fabrics? Btw, THANK YOU SO MUCH for zooming it really close!!
It's the first time I'm patiently listening to a "how to stitch" in all those beautiful ways, and actually learning. You're amazing. 💜💚💙 Thank you so much for being my teacher.
i just finished making a doll outfit that's a solid color and have some seed beads that are of a similar color along with white, black and chrome.....i knew i wanted to embroider beads onto it and i do know how to do basic beadwork, but this was helpful to make a more flower like pattern on it that i originally had in my head.
Beautiful tutorial! Can I ask what fabric you are using? Thanks again for your lovely stitching lessons and I’m off to watch your second bead stitch video!
Thank you for this! I just started trying embroidery in general and decided to embroider a fish using beads. This was super helpful. I think I’ll do those offset rows of back stitches to make it look more like scales ☺️
Thanks for the refresher course. I am thinking of embellishing some black tank tops. I have too many black ones. I have one that I bought a long time ago with beads and floss at the scoop neckline. So I decided I needed to do others with sequins and/or beads to dress them up. Your tutorial is excellent and I know I won't have any trouble getting back into this craft with your help. Dawn
Fascinating 😊 I never thought of using embroidery thread. Finding you is a very pleasant surprise …*Happy Dance* … I’m excited to go see your other content . Thank you 💐
Check out our first video on using beads in embroidery Sarah, it's in the bead playlist at the end of this video! It tells you all about the sizes and more!
Hello, I just came across your tutorial today as I plan to put some bead embroidery on a plain red dress, you make it look so easy, thank you for you for your video and listeninh to your voice is so relaxing.
My problem with a chain stitch is the length??? I’m a perfectionist and did cross stitch years ago. I like it but struggled with perfection and try back of my work looked horrible! Lol
Very helpful, thank you! What do you use to mark your fabric? Dressmaker’s chalk pencil? Also, can beaded embroidery be machine-washed (?gentle / wool cycle), or must it be hand-washed?
It's a verstaile table clamp Tina, check out our video on them (just search versatile table clamp) and you can buy from our online shop (www.sarahhomfray.com)
There's probably about 3 colours in there Tresa! I tend to put a base colour on then put different sparkly ones over the top. When it starts to wear off I stick another coat of another colour on!
