This is beautiful. Thanks so much for always sharing with us. Please I want to ask, how can I get the Czech tila beads, super duo beads and Czech faceted crystal beads? Good afternoon Ma/Sir.
This comes out beautifully, so long as you don’t use the fatter/bigger superduo’s from Toho (mine were quite old, so I don’t know if the different brands may be a similar size now). Also, I found that keeping your thread tension snug but not super tight prevents the square from curling, so it lays flatter. Lastly, it looks very nice with a 6mm crystal in the middle instead of a pearl, although it is a really tight fit and you have to use only 1 size 15 bead instead of two.
You really have to use a size 13 beading needle instead of the standard size 10 or you will give up in frustration. Maybe a Tulip brand 12 would have worked but I finally resorted to a size 13. This is not an earring that you can just toss off in an hour, but if you want something really special and are not rushed, it’s a very fine pattern.
That reminds me, your instructions are marvelously detailed and I really am in awe of how much time and care with which you share.
