? for experienced beaders

Ericka,

I'll address this to you seems I know you've been working on a M Designs name piece, but anyone else, feel free to chime in.

I'm going to have to send my DD back to school with instructions for how to attach the beads to her Dream piece. I'm wondering what thread/color choice you made. Should I try matching the off-white linen color with floss or go with Nymo? She's using a 28ct linen so the weave is fairly open.

Thanks, D> Joan E. wrote:

I did mine on 36ct linen, and I've been using a double length of the transparent quilting thread. I think it gives a nice look--you really don't see how the beads are attached. I think you could use floss matching the background, but I think it would be more noticeable, which is not necessarily a bad thing. I just like the more invisible look.

Best wishes, Ericka
