I hope you will be able to help me with joining the circles and rivolis together on the Moonshadow necklace. I am a little confused by the instructions - would it be possible to get a thread diagram please?

Thanks,

BeadyD

I have received this as a present and have got as far as the tabs. It says start with 10 beads and do 17 rows. Firstly is 'going up once and down once' a row and also my piece for the tab looks a lot wider than the picture (mine is about an inch). Does this sound right or wrong. Help please I am itching to continue with it!

I am a fairly experienced beader. Done loads of weaving and peyote stitch and bought the Bellflower rope kit for myself for Xmas a while ago. I am now on my fourth go at this. The problem is the lariat. Every three or four inches it just breaks. So I have done about a foot of it and then in the middle, it suddenly starts to come apart. As a result I keep giving up. Then I say no, i must finish it.. but I do another few inches and it happens AGAIN.

Any idea what I am going wrong. I am using the thread and stuff that came with it... I am a fairly "tight" beader (too much peyote stitch), I wonder if that's it...

Ideas and advice gratefully received....

Does anyone have any ideas and suggestions on how to bead when you have a baby. I'm trying to get pregnant and I'm worried about having small beads and possibly needles around the house when I have a baby. Another concern is if I will have any time to bead. Does anyone have any ideas and suggestions on how to bead in this situation. Maybe what you did when you had a baby.

Hi
I have now made a few Bead Merchant kits and have quite a stash of 'leftover' beads that aren't enough to do a whole project. Does anyone think it would be a nice idea to have a 'Leftovers Library' of little patterns available on the website to amuse/inspire us? I'm thinking beaded beads or earrings that type of thing! I especially love the triangle shapes but find them tricky to mix and match into other larger projects.
Happy Beading
