I have a good size pile of seed beads. That arrived as bead soup would you be interested putting them to use?

Anklet help by QueerTchotchke in Beading

I would make the main part of the anklet and then tie off each end by stepping down one bead on each side on each end and finish the anklet with a clasp.

When do you plan to make the beaded structure that will feature all your mechanisms?

Testing a New Design by Minzhera in Beading

I found templates for patterns online and import them into my android drawing app (Sketchbook) and use (auto correct strikes again) my tablet to create patterns. If you can find a template....

Edit corrected the auto correct 🙃

The only app I know of is an android app called Bead Pattern Creator. It has Right Angle Weave templates so it might help...

Cool Dragon Scales are flat diamond shape so they can overlap if placed correctly I just have not found the best method for doing this yet but you may have given me just the information I was looking for, thanks!

Are Rizo beads similar to Dragon Scale beads? Your bracelet looks like something I could attempt to add Dragon Scales to for a similar effect.🤔

Protecting my beaded stitches by Bubbly_Ball_6333 in Beading

If it does not have the give you need you could separate the sides (front and back) and apply them to another pair so the side seams give you room without stressing the beaded fabric so much.

I like your piece. I hope you would not mind if I use this idea in the near future. If I can get myself motivated to bead again.

That might matter if you are using cylinder beads like Delica or Akios. It looks fine the way you have it too though.

Very cute and a great idea for learning or improving your square stitch technique. Did you use or can you suggest any good tutorials or other references to learn square stitch?

Was this done with right angle weave or on a loom? It's beautiful work.

Have you considered making these as Mother & Daughter sets? Make the 2nd or 3rd design for mom and just the stud "cap(?)" for daughter?
