I am continuing on my exploration of netted beading techniques. Here you can see the same pattern with a variety of beads.

| Beaded by Julia Hecht Pattern By Miroslava https://youtu.be/Tv8D8_NG-XI |
The larger piece is done using 15/0 Japanese seed beads. The smaller ones are done using 16/0 Czech seed beads (the red and pink beads) and 15/0 Czech Charlottes in gunmetal, gold, and copper. You can see the size difference. The small ones are 1" in diameter and the larger one is almost a 1/2" bigger. It is important to remember that 15/0 is not a fixed size...but a relative size and varies with the origin of manufacture. Even among Japanese manufacturers, size and shape differ a bit. Some intricate patterns done with Miyuki beads will not work well with Toho or Matsuno beads and vice versa. Huichol TV is a Youtube channel by Miroslava and this particular tutorial is narrated in English. If you want to try this pattern yourself, you need only 3 colors of seed beads. Click here
and have fun.

A message about Sylvia....
Sylvia will be out for several weeks as she recovers from surgery. We wish her a speedy recovery!
A message about Happy Hours...
While Sylvia is out, we will continue to have our Happy Hour events. There will be patterns, refreshments, and I am confident, we'll still have lots of laughs. They'll be self-supported for a few weeks, so I'll strive for easy to do patterns.
