All of our Delica beads are now back in stock and these 4 beauties have also been added. They are available in 10g packs, and also By the Gram.

We did venture into a few other products and I will get those added soon.

These accessories (cauldorn, spoon, broomstick and spell book) were designed to complement our Halloween Witch Tassels perfectly. Full instructions, with diagrams and photographs are provided. Experience of peyote stitch and reading charts is recommended as some parts can be fiddly, and would be difficult if you are totally new to the stitch.
The 20-page pattern is available now to download, or you can order a printed copy.
I used Miyuki seed beads in sizes 11 and 8, and I made my own tassel for the broomstick. I had great fun designing these accessories and I’m looking forward to having them on full display in the Autumn. Here’s a little display I out together.

During our recent stock-take we discovered some items that were not listed online. Shame on us!
There were 2 Delica Size 11 colours and both are available in 10g packs or By the Gram.


There were also some tools …..




As with all the other fringe packs, this fringe differs from the original pattern but does make up as shown on the photograph. I have used beads that are more readily available to us here in the UK, so that I can keep them in stock.
This is the last fringe for now, so all I have to do is decide what to start on next!

I’m pleased to say that we have received our long-awaited delivery of patterns by Chris Manes and they have now been put back in stock on the website. So yes, Santa’s back!
The last couple of deliveries have incurred extra freight costs and we have had to re-evaluate our pricing. This does mean that patterns on the new delivery are showing at a higher price. Cirque Visage is now £18.95 and the rest are all £15.95.
Patterns we have in stock from previous deliveries will remain at £14.50. There are only a limited number of copies available, so you may have to be quick to get them while at the lower price.
When I recently posted about the new additions to the range of Fringe Bead Packs for our A Muse Ink range, I missed telling you about Cleopatra. How could I have missed this iconic design. She is one of the few designs that I have managed to fully frame and I’m really proud of her.
I only had to make a few minor tweaks from the original fringe that many of you will have seen on our stand at bead shows, and it’s now available online. As with all the fringe packs, you will get all the beads and written sequence for this fringe, as well as a close-up photograph. Each pack also includes the construction technique.

Reels of Nymo D are now available in Champagne and Evergreen.


Reels of KO thread are now available in Apple Green, Denim Blue and yellow.



I’ve had a busy March re-creating the fringes for these fabulous designs. Each pack comes with all the beads you need to make the fringe shown in the photograph, together with a list of the beads I used, a specific sequence for the design with close-up photograph and general information on making a fringe.
The Fringe Bead Packs for Marleena and Red Hat Lady Do Not include beads for the boa, but I have explained how I made them. You will just need an extra 20g of Delica beads to make them.
As a user of short beading needles, I found using a long beading needle to get through the 30mm bugles a necessary, but strange experience!
I still have a few more fringes to complete but they are on their way!
If you are looking for any Delica Bead or Fringe Bead Packs – or indeed any of our kits – that are showing as out of stock, please get in touch and I can check if we have the beads in stock to make a pack up for you. Out Of Stock sometimes just means I’ve got behind!
Anyway, these are the latest set of Fringe Packs.





Firstly, Fireline. We were not able to get any of our usual 50 yard reels of Crystal 6lb Fireline, but we were able to get a few larger reels of 125 yards, so these have now been added to the website for you.
Just this 1 new Miyuki size 11 seed bead this time:

There are 4 new Delica size 11 colours too. These are also available By The Gram.




I have just added a small selection of Push-Pull Box Clasps to the Findings section. There are not many of each design, so if you like what you see, you had best be quick!



I have also moved a number of clasps and spacer bars to the Clearance Section. Here are just a few of them, but when they are gone, they’re gone.
