[@morenaullucci431]

Hey Carolyn, I found your tutorial on beading very helpful.. your mermaids are beautiful 💓💓💓 Cheers Morena

Thank you for this video! I have done my first biscornu using your tutorial, it was very very helpful. In March I should start beading my first Nora Corbett, so this new tutorial came just in time for me. I was about to use the invisible thread, thank you so much for the tip related to ironing, I hadn't thought about it. Happy stitching on all your projects!

This was fantastic! I had it on my radar to watch before I beaded my Bella Filipina mermaid Rossa...and I'm giving it a go tomorrow!! It might end very quickly if I decide I need smaller beads but I'm going to try it out, and having watched your video and some others I feel like I'm at least well informed on things to try. I will be using the invisible thread as, like you, I think it will look nice not to be able to see the thread and also I can bead different colours all with the same thread. You mermaids ate gorgeous and your beading is beautiful so I'll be happy if I make mine look anywhere near this good! Thanks so much for the helpful and encouraging video 😄💜

Thank you for doing this tutorial, I have found this to be a great help. I am doing my first Mirabilia and bought invisible thread but hadn’t a clue where to start.

Thank you Carolyn, your tutorial was really helpful. And certainly made beading look much more achievable. The info about the petite beads etc was very valuable knowledge for me to know. Love your gorgeous mermaids 🧜‍♀ 🧜‍♀ Happy Stitching. 🩷🩷

Thanks for filming this video. I did learn some tips about beading. I hope to see you soon.

This was such a wonderful video, thank you. I am so excited to start a fancy lady of my own, although I won't be getting one till Christmas. I feel so much more confident 💗

I am so glad you talked about bead sizes. I have several miras on the go but haven't got to the beading stage yet. As I am doing a couple on 18ct aida I did wonder about the beads fitting. I will be getting the petites now. That was invaluable information. Thank you.

This was very helpful. Thank you! ❤

Thank you. That was very helpful. I have some projects that need beading and I have never done that.

[@karinmonnich3310]

Thank you very much for the tutorial. Happy stitching!

[@RachelProbst]

Thank you for this video! I'm definitely going to try beading your way :). Keep on making these videos :)

Myuki beading needles are strong but thin and are great for bead weaving not sure about bead embroidery but you might want to try them.
