Beadwork Tutorial for Beginners: One Needle Method

[@alissagonzales735]

I have been beading since the 60's. I used to bead a lot of the outfits the dancers wore. I still do all kinds of bead work but just not as often. I taught my boys as well as my grandchildren all to bead. I taught them to design as well.

I stumbled upon your videos by chance, and am so glad I did... You're a charming instructor on a topic that I found overwhelming and quite daunting. Honestly, you've made it seem approachable. The snippets of your family makes it feel even more doable (is that even a word?). I have two daughters, teens, and it's lovely to see a mom at the table crafting while the kiddos do their thing right beside her. It felt like i was visiting a friend, or even at my own home... Thank you for the time and effort you spend creating these tutorials. You and your videos are greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much! This was so helpful when you use the larger beads.

You are absolutely charming! I love learning from you. I am just learning beadwork. I used to make jewelry and still have some of the stuff left, i.e. cabochons. So I'm excited to start beading them.

Thank you, young Lady! I have been periodically beading, probably since before you were you were born (and I am terrible! lol) and have leaned some good tricks from you to help with my pendants and gifts. Nyawen! (Thank you) excellent content.

[@corenaunderwood9225]

Thank you! That was very helpful. I've started beading again and I want to try beading something like you are teaching.

Thank you so much for all your incredible tutorials! I am brand new to beading and I have learned so much from you!

I also go back three brads [after the first set of two.]. This secures the beads and gives a more uniform finish. When I complete the row I also go through the entire row again straight through. This give a very even look and fills the beads for stability. Doing this however you may want to use a thinner thread, or single thread method or use Fireline 6 lb. Thank you for the video!

I really appreciate your videos, I love learning and different techniques and skills! And your voice is so relaxing

[@jannapackard3910]

I do one needle beading but come up 3 beads back instead of 2 and go thru the last 3 before picking up 2 more beads. This fastens both sides of the beads to the backing.

This is the comment that I was hoping to find! Yes, I thought that’s how to do bead embroidery or around a cab. It’s been over 15 years since I tried doing this. I think it’s time to try again, thanks to TWS and to YOU, @jannapackard3910! ❤

[@kathleengay2539]

[@LadyT0828]

I thank you for this video!!! Very helpful!!

[@jeans5thable]

Thank you so much. I can actually learn from yours.

[@Trevorstonechild71]

Cool I don't know if I really have the patience I wish I did

[@aprilkoostachin9812]

What can you substitute for the beeswax if you have none

[@elenademery6563]

Any suggestions on what glue to use instead of E6000?

[@marywilliams6823]

I do the one needle technique but only a single thread so I don’t have a problem going through the beads. Majority of the time I use size 13 or 15 seed beads..

[@twowolfstudio538]

That’s a really great idea 🤔😮 thank you!!!

[@katisingh]

What are cabs exactly and what are they used for?

[@thedollface57]

What size nymo thread would you use for size 10’s? Sz 11’s?

[@LynnTrimble-x3i]

How do you thread your needle

[@jeans5thable]

I'm learning right now and I would live to learn Buffalo for Buffalo Bills. One of our players just had a heart attack on the field. I want my very first ones to honor him. Do you have any Buffalo tutorials please? Thank you so much.

[@Jennifer-yl8hm]

Thanks for. The tutorial was very informative

[@sydneywhitfield7497]

Is there a certain glue I should use f I'm beading around coins?

[@EmeraldScott-q8c]

[@jamiehaugen9767]

Where do you get the circle thing in the middle? I apologize… I’m new and have no idea what is even called lol

[@thedollface57]

It’s a cabachon….cab for short.
