Yes very good video! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️

I want to work with gum

Thanks Sheridan, we have more bead videos in the editing room so keep an eye out for those!

Thank you James!

Hear hear. ❤

It sounds beauitful!

Thank you for your kind comments Wompherky Phyllei!

Use a strong thread Darth, you want them nice and secure for your big day!

@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery I have some bead thread, and I'm doubling it up :) This is my first time beading anything, but it's just to add a hint of sparkle to the edges.

Thanks Amy; we have a new one on beads going up next week so keep an eye out for that!

Thank you for the compliment Eileen. We work hard to make these videos clear and understandable - it's so good to read that we've hit the mark!

Thanks Taylor, hope the project comes out well!

That's the great thing about videos, you can pause, play and repeat as many times as you like Vicki!

I would probably do any embroidery first then add the beads on later Remy 101, but check out my videos on how to stitch with the beads then you can do both at the same time! kzfaq.info/sun/PLC2TZFIW8ZoM6GYgvkmbIpMso9NJUqgle

@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery thanks so much! Can’t wait to give it a go. Hope you have a spectacular week x

If they poke up at one end Tammie, I think your stitch must be too short?

You are welcome Umaira!

Welcome aboard Andrea! We have this one also on seed beads which you might find useful: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJufn7Vp3p-yp4U.html

A natural fabric such as cotton or a tightly woven linen (or a blend of both) is great for this kind of embroidery Harriet. If you aren't working on clothes consider also using a backing fabric in a cotton to give you some extra stability.

Great to hear Brenda!

We only have the flat velvet boards now Susan

Penny, the 'hoop' is made of 2 sets of stretcher bar frames www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_5566804-Stretcher-bar-frame-8-inches.html or www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_5566810-Stretcher-bar-frame-7-inches.html I clamp the frame into two of these for filming to keep it extra steady, but only one is necessary for normal working: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_4538062-Versatile-table-clamp.html

Is the address still good because it doesn’t want to load...I would like to buy one too...

It's a versatile table clamp and you can see it in our shop here: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_4538062-Versatile-table-clamp.html

I was about to ask the same question!

Its just a fine weave linen Angel D!

You can get specific needles and threads just for beading (beading needles have a thin eye and are usually extra long) but if you don't have these then use a fine embroidery needle (a number 10 or 12 works well) and you can wax an ordinary sewing thread with bees wax to reduce the wear on the thread.

1) I don't but his would work Catherine. I just tend to avoid anything we glue on it but this would be good if you wanted to stitch onto clothing 2) The knots are waste knots and get cut off. Check out my video on starting and finishing your threads!

@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Thank you so much. Happy new year to you.

Overstretched wrapped pearl purl Nicole! Check out our goldwork videos for how to do this

Yes you could use these methods on a doll Christy, If you are puttiong them on after you have made the doll you could use a curved needle to help (a size 10!)

It's a verstile table clamp and we have them for sale in our shop Martha: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop

Sent you an message. Found the site but don't understand what to purchase. Please advise. Love your videos. Happy to know you have a site as well😊

The higher the number the smaller the diameter of bead Becky. A number 8 is 2.5mm, a number 11 is 1.8mm for example so perhaps start nearer the larger end and try these first. Beads come in hundreds of shapes and sizes so start with the basic round seed beads and you can experiment from there.

This is a velvet board and we make them ourselves for purchase from our online shop. They are available in different sizes and colourways and you can see them here: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/cat_264747-Embroidery-Equipment.html. We ship worldwide!

I use a versatile table clamp Sheila, check out our video on it and buy from our shop here: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/

Yes. Go to the beginning of the video Joyce and I explain about the types of thread. I talk about needles at 2 mintues but basically you need to be able to slide the bead over the eye so make sure the needle is fine enough to do this with the beads you are using.

Lots of cameras!

This linen fabric here Apoorvi: www.sarahhomfray.com/myshop/prod_6760973-Linen-Ivory.html

No. You can do beading on any type of fabric

Thank you I needed to know .

Make sure the volume is up on your device AND on the KZfaq volume setting Andrea

That's not elastic thread Adrian, just normal embroidery cotton by the look of it. She's putting them down in the same way that I do in this video. We are going to do another Stitching Around the World video (check them out here if you haven't seen them: kzfaq.info/sun/PLC2TZFIW8ZoNnh8ASYu2-Q9vkaVgypm-Y) so perhaps you can show us what you are making in that?

@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Thanks for your reply, but I am confused! The thread she uses looks very thick, and contains undulations that show it is made from twisted fibres like wool. Between 0:30 and 1:00, she puts between 25 and 30 beads on the thread at once, and then goes back and adds stitches to pull the thread onto the curved design line. You do something similar on the with the 'e' in your bead lettering video, but only putting down a few beads at a time. It is not clear whether you would put down more beads if you were working with a gentler curve. Incidentally, that link doesn't work, but my project involves embroidering a cushion cover with a combination of pompoms, buttons, and wool-stitched petal outlines in a regular geometric design. For the petals I'm using a whipped running stitch (which I think gives it an organic-looking frilly edge), with a backstitch at the tip to give it a symmetric point. The cushion cover is pre-made so it's a little more challenging than embroidering onto flat cloth, especially near the edges. I am up to the challenge, though! Thank you once again.
