Aside from the items above, there are still things that you need in order to have a great bead embroidery project. These are the following;
a.) Embroidery frame – this is better than using embroidery hoops as you can control the tightness and avoid buckling.
b.)Pattern – it is important that you have a clear and understandable pattern. If you want, you can make a copy of this and keep the original for further use.
c.) Permanent markers – you will need these in marking the area of the pattern which you have finished
Okay, so you’re good to go. You can now say that you will have a successful bead embroidery project. But, don’t be so sure until you’ve read on these tips:
• Make sure that you have enough of all the items that you need. The threads and beads are the things that mostly run out in the middle of the project. You may want to have several needles in case the one you are using breaks.
• Be sure to use a thread length you are comfortable with. A very long thread may tangle and cause you trouble in the middle of your project.
• Proper lighting is necessary so keep your working place properly illuminated at all times.
Even though bead embroidery is expensive and seems quite hard to finish, you can still have a great project. You just have to keep in mind several important things such as to have a complete set of the things that you need, to follow the tips in beading, and to know where you’ll get your items.
