If you're new to beading, it's a good idea to begin with the longest or widest row closest to the center of your project. You can choose to leave a long tail if you plan on using the same thread to stitch the opposite side of the pattern.

Alternatively, some prefer starting at the top or bottom edge - it's entirely up to your preference! There is no right or wrong way to bead, so do what works best for you.

You can try out some practice patterns before making a purchase. Check out the "Free Practice Patterns" section in my FAQs for more information.

Unfortunately, I am not accepting custom pattern requests at the moment.

If you want to see the design and format of my patterns and practice the craft before buying, please check out this link. Most of my designs are created on a peyote chart, but they can be rotated to weave as brick stitch (which I prefer for irregularly shaped beadwork).

1. My drawings look cuter on a peyote graph.
2. A peyote graph can be easily rotated to weave as brick stitch which I prefer for irregular shapes.
3. Gravity! When working on a brick stitch graph, beads are arranged horizontally and the sides may fold together like a book cover, distorting your hard work. The fold can still happen for designs made on peyote charts that are turned sideways to weave as brick stitch. However, when you rotate the finished piece back to its upright position; gravity will help your beadwork lay flat, revealing its full beauty. Looser thread tension will result in silkier pieces.
