[@nryane]

I LOVE your projects! You do such a great job instructing us in how to make them. Love your editions of previous instructions. They are so WISE - like your name. Too bad it isn’t Wisewoman!

[@lrajic8281]

This is do sophisticated, and it looks so difficult. But, you are a genius, and it's wonderful.

[@ghostsoup1313]

I bought your book Beautiful Beaded Ropes and this was the first project I made. It was easy because your instructions were so clear. I get many compliments. Thank you so much.

[@jackiespiritas5454]

Made this bracelet in Nickel and Antique Bronze tohos. I bejeweled the toggle clasp following your other tutorial. It’s fabulous and rich looking. It is knocking my socks off!

[@dawnowens8946]

Love the sound effects! 😄 I love all your videos - great explanations, tips and tricks for how to avoid mishaps. Your book is on my Christmas wish list.

[@karenbenson9531]

I made this bracelet a few months ago following the directions in the book, it turned out perfect. Thanks for the great directions.

[@danilzag]

Love it in 15 seed beads, 11 is to bulky. Love all your projects Jill!!!

[@deborahbrass8606]

You are an absolutely awesome teacher and your book is just wonderful

[@njtappe3938]

Hi Jill, I already have your book (love it!). I love this particular design thanks for doing a tutorial. I am a visual and auditory learner. Soooo...this tutorial is right up my alley. I love Herringbone stitch.

[@o0oTyPow]

This was my first project out of this book!!!!! Love love love this book!!!!!!!!!

Hello Bead Sensei. I made this bracelet and my mom liked it so much that she took it right off my wrist. Now, whenever we get our family together (which is pretty regularly) my mom is wearing the bracelet. I think she loves it!

[@AmethystWoman]

Can i just say you are fabulous? I just did a twisted herringbone necklace for my sister for the holidays (only my 2nd beading project ever - the first was also a twisted herringbone! I dig right in.) and was thinking a bracelet to match. This is perfect. Love the amethyst tower btw. My birthstone. You are awesome. Your videos are tops.

[@shellyhynes8887]

Thank you Jill, I love this bracelet, as i do with almost all of the pieces you create and teach us how to make. Being in Canada, with our dollar value so low, makes it hard to buy your wonderful book. As soon as the dollar comes up enough to make it affordable I am ordering this book! Thank you for sharing these how to videos.

[@rockerbaby2003]

I’m rewatching this is I’ve made the two ropes already, but went clockwise whereas you’re stitching counterclockwise, glad it produces the same result!

[@leighonacurry3463]

Love it! Thanks for sharing

[@sparkleemojidotjpeg]

Thank you so much for this video! I find beading videos so relaxing and this is such a lovely project.

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

I'm pretty sure I have your book. But my beading books are still packed from moving. I should be able to get those unpacked soon. It's been nearly 3 years since I also packed my beading tools and supplies. (Hubs was sick for quite some time, so unpacking was not a priority.) In the meantime, watching this video has been a great reminder of herringbone. Yes! The all 15/0 version is more "elegant" looking. And oh my, what a difference it makes to bead 2 of 6 columns of the rings with 15/0. The rings lay and look so much better. Using a contrast color is a nice added touch. How fun would it be to make 3 rings in 3 different colors? Of course red/white/blue comes to mind automatically for me. Then, there's the 3 primary colors. I could go on, but won't. I noticed while watching this video today (doubt I noticed before) that your verbal explanation in along with your demonstration really helped me understand what you're doing. I especially noticed on the bead cap - the main reason I decided to watch this tut. (someone referred to it on your FB group page).I have noticed that many KZbinrs don't successfully communicate verbally. So I appreciate your tutorials much more than when I first began watching tutorials about 10-12 years ago. Some talk too much! Ugh! You don't, thank goodness. I also realized, how you close the bead cap top is a perfect way to finish the back of a beaded bezel. I've always just sorta fudged it. Now I know what to do next time. Yay!!! I really like how it looks with 2 colors. Oh, and what a beautiful tassel cap this will make, especially a bit longer and in various colors with various accent/decorative beads. My imagination is having fun dreaming up ideas! Thanks for this terrific tutorial. I really look forward to this project ASAP.

[@skater2572]

This bracelet was the reason I just had to have this book. Great video!!

[@JessicaJohnson-pw1ok]

thank you for being an awesome teacher and helping ones like me learn this. very well done.

[@MissIV]

I can't wait to try this, I'm so glad I found you, you make it look so easy!

[@gracicreates3795]

I love love your tutorials! Your a wonderful teacher in beading!

[@lilredz56]

your so awesome in your tutorials..thank you so much. I also bought your books but I like this too

[@3189maria]

hi Jill, I love the bracelet, it looks really great in 15's. I`m working on it, the worst of it are the 1st. few row ....... jajaja ..... very tricky, I used your tip to go on but it looks much better doing it the slow way. tks VERY FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND TIPS

[@julna2823]

This is so beautifuul, and you are such a nice lady, thanks for sharing your ideas.

[@marydaley6583]

Thanks Jill I have wanted to do this bracelet ever since I got the book but have been a little nervous about doing a herringbone rope but watching this video I think I can do it now. I will show it to you in June at the Bead and Button show!!

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

+Mary Daley I'm gonna have my eye out for it!!! Only 12 more weeks!

[@lorettaeldridge3469]

Lol, it does look like a corn cob! I'm so excited about your book, can't wait to get one!!! Thanks Jill, you do Wonderful work 😊

[@sgolash]

Yeah Bitty! Thanks for asking Jill to do this video! And as always, thanks Jill!

[@lilredz56]

Jill love your books an video's but I really love your big eyes...and purple is your color ..thanks for all you do...God bless

[@marymerlee]

Jill, You are awesome! Thank you for the update on this bracelet. I have your book and appreciate that you have done this. I have lots of 15-0 and want to put one together soon. ;-)

[@merry384harpwood]

Thank you Jill, for the awesome tutorial! I got your book right before Christmas and I love looking at it! Thank you also for the correction on this bracelet! I've printed it out and will keep it nestles in my book! I've learned lots from your video! You are lots of fun! Thanks Again!Merry 💜

[@karenragucci2044]

Had to laugh at your corn on the cob comment because that was exactly my first thought when I saw it! As usual, a great explanation with the whys and wherefores!

[@bittydavis1738]

Thank you Jill! Can't wait to try it now..... ☺ Questions answered as always... ☺

[@shirleybrock2812]

Love love love this video. I am going to try this one and see what happens .

[@cindyloumasera4858]

Have your book personally signed by you. TY! Love it and thanks for the bonus video.

[@karenmc4592]

love this one, nice to be able to wear it with jeans or anything. Most beaded jewlery is just to fancy. thanks

[@theresasyetta8843]

Thank you love your book

[@LHTzavalas]

Love the 15 0's too. Yes, we are spoiled with your awesome videos, Jill! Would love to see a KZbin on your fabulous Bali Dreaming Bracelet someday! I've got the bracelet and clasp done, but am having trouble understanding the slider. =/

[@eponymousIme]

You're right! We're spoiled. :-) Just finished the Butterfly Kisses necklace today (LOVE it!) and was browsing through your book when the end caps caught my eye. I skipped to the instructions for them ('cause I'm always looking for good clasps/finishes to integrate with my finished pieces, including kumihimo), but I got lazy and wondered if perhaps you had done a video showing how to make them. Whee. Lucky me. Here it is.

[@matchairedgain2478]

hello!!! I'm working on this one! love the bracelets except the it's 15o's it hurts my eyes...but I'm loving it, can't wait to finish it!!!! thanks Jill!

[@dorisgonzalez6987]

Wonderful marvelous work

[@peacheserrano1]

I love it. So pretty. Definitely trying it soon. Great work and easy to follow. Omg, the bead caps are generous. Would have never thought of trying that. Thanks :)

[@siouxhazeldon2545]

This is a beautiful bracelet, I'm just learning about beading & I love your channel. I'm a new subscriber & I've learned loads already. I know this is an old video, but it's new to me. Thank you for your lovely explanation of how to tackle this make. 😊💖😘

[@nancynic6965]

So beautiful !!! Excellent !!! Thank you !

[@patriciacalvinho4629]

SO BEAUTIFUL!!

[@MarthaM4858]

Love this bracelet and can't wait to make it. I think I will use the 15/0s. In your comparison with both bracelets the original one was just barely on camera so we really didn't get a good comparison of them.

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

+Martha M. I know. I'm sorry! I goofed up there!!

[@elviracarmendubois6882]

Hermosa!!! Muy original.

[@marthacoleman1195]

I much prefer the 15/0 version. As usual, you out did yourself with these instructions!

[@kristywelter1760]

Beautiful bracelet. 😀. I would love to try to make it, in future. I love the piece though. 😀.

[@vivianschannel1922]

Hope you do more tutorials. Thank you so much. Kristine

[@RosaPerez-gu2vt]

I love your work!!! Thanks!!!

[@Kera.S.]

The beaded cap you made reminds me of a thimble, now I want to make a bling thimble for my hand quilting 😂 Lined with leather of course 😉

[@frogman9331]

Love this! Thanks you so much Jill...you are great and so giving.

[@mariaskach8934]

thank you, so much you are so smart, I will tried it. I really needed all kind of tips on this tecnique!!!

[@JoyeFisher]

Thanks Jill! Buying he book. ❤️

[@ansjeloef8770]

I like the 15* bracelet it is adorable.

[@lydiaman8680]

I love your giant amethyst crystal in back of you!!! I would love one, where can I get one??!! They say if you put your hand next to the crystals, you can feel the energy.

[@lisaganz6748]

LOL at the corn on the cob!! And it really does!

[@susanheyborne3875]

It seems that you could use the book's instructions for attaching both circles if you just turned the piece upside down before preceding with the second circle. Lovely. I will use 15s. Thanks.

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

+Susan Heyborne That would definitely work too.

[@naouallaila7635]

C'est magnefigue, j'aime, merci👍👍👍

[@billieh333]

thank you jill. I will let you know how it goes

[@dabeadz]

Do you recommend also using a little glue to attach the bead cap, and then do the back and forth sewing through the bead cap and ropes? Please advise. Thank you.

[@terrysanders8041]

Hi Jill, thank you for a great project. I however have a hard time to figure out the step ups that is required to do. Would you be able to show a close up of how you do the step up? or maybe you have a video someplace. thank you for considering this.

[@lauramarinello5965]

hermoso! gracias por compartirlo!

[@Pjwhaletailgmail]

Lovely bracelet, Jill. I'm pretty comfortable with the herringbone stitch but never tried it with 15's before. I'm having a REALLY hard holding them at the beginning and getting the needle in the right beads because my fingers seem to cover up the beads. Any tips/tricks for managing the elusive starting rows? (My first attempt was with silver-lined beads and that seems to make it harder to see what I'm doing as well. Going to try again with matte 15's.) Thanks for your terrific, patient teaching.

[@nilzasuculentasnaholanda4565]

hi there. l had problems to start herringbone as wel. MAYBE you wanna see how beading for perfeccionist starts it. lts completaly a diferent way and that s how I DO that since l saw her videos.. she has a few videos about it. l am not sure if the videos are on her ADVANCE page or at the BEGINNERS page. take a look there lt s really worth. hope it helps you. nice weekend.

[@masifanajmi7184]

Wonderful

[@tanjazahle3154]

Dear Jill, im a beading newbie form germany. I love your videos. You make it so easy to understand, if need to look something up i look up your videos first. Thank you so much for all the work you put into explaining. I would like to know what kind of books you have so that i can get some of them. Thank you very much. Greatings from germany.

[@maggiequilts]

How many grams of 15's do I need? Love the bracelet .....you're videos are the best. Thanks

[@ellenhulslander2897]

Doing this bracelet for the first time in 15s. I found an issue with the endcaps. You can correct me if I am wrong. You stated that the endcap size can be adjusted, but should be a multiple of 4. I tried to reduce it to 20 beads around, but it did not work with the decrease, which is a multiple of three. Since it has to be an even number of beads around, I believe it also has to be divisible by 3, as your decrease starts with 2 regular peyote, skip 1. Love the bracelet. I did it in medium blue.

[@sarahwamalalubaale579]

Thanks a bunch for this video.

[@dorisgonzalez6987]

Excelent congratulation !!!

[@mukwah1111]

LOVE this bracelet. Downloaded the bracelet page from above but there are no supplies lists? No idea how many beads I will need. Cant afford to buy the book.

[@AmethystWoman]

mukwah1111 but if she gave away all the info, no one would buy the book. I'll be buying soon.

[@cynmillar1]

Jill sometimes the work isn't on camera when you show both projects. Thank you for the video.

[@jalpajadav8662]

hello Jill, can u please also show how tango forever necklace wud be n specially earrings... i want to make whole set

[@reneemcdonagh3006]

Hi Jill, I have done this bracelet in size 15s. Are the end caps also in size 15. Just struggling getting them to meet up. Thanks you so much by the way - I am am a massive fan no will definitely be buying your book when I get some $$

[@aliciarodriguez2699]

Hello Jill I have your book - and I love it. Do you use one color or 2 for the bracelet in the book?

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

I used just one color for the book sample.

[@heatherstworzyjanek8483]

jill is there any way you can tell us what color you used? I love this bracelet

[@alldatsassalldasass5714]

Love this bracelet. love watching your videos. can i get your book at a book store? or online?

[@alldatsassalldasass5714]

oh nvm i see the link.

[@iTube22100]

Wonderful color the 11/0 sb of the rings, can you please tell us which is ? - Thanks P.S. : the cap can also be done with delica ?

[@robinstumpp350]

Could you use some glue like E600 in the end caps to help secure the end caps?

[@maryteaford9527]

I'm trying to put another row of ladder stich on top of the first row as in your forever tango on video. How do I do that??

[@rosietass7988]

love the bracelet can anyone tell me how long do the ropes have to be for the bracelet thank you

[@mike1968442]

I started beading years ago to help take my mind off my pain. Well now I need to bead to keep my hands busy so I can lose weight. All I see or hear are food references....lol great viv.

[@AmethystWoman]

Sally Semrau lol. Except the slithering things... 😀

[@dorisgonzalez6987]

Esta Bella pulsera la hice hace cuatro años y ya no me acuerdo que largo miden las tiras de herringbone antes de anudarlas en el círculo, y cuánto mide el círculo? Me ayudaría? Tank you

[@heatherstworzyjanek8483]

jill is there anyway you can tell me what color beads you used. my mom wants this bracelet and color for Christmas

[@Middle-Road.Kim.K]

I'm a fan o' the 15s. I also have 18/0 but can't find a needle with a small enough eye. Anyhoo, do you think this pattern would work with 4 - bead herringbone instead of 6? I'm wondering just how dainty I can get this bracelet! I would greatly appreciate your input... dismantling herringbone rope misadventures is a pain in the patootie. I love your videos and books, thank you!

[@AMADIVA-K]

thanks for the video just like you say you did spoil us with your video but i dont mnd being a spoilt brat for your video i bought the book its awesome the only project am really haveing problem with is the one on the cover big chung and beautiful but i have tried 3x but cant really get it iorder the book from hungelduble a big book store here in german i didnt get the extra video though but i dont mind because you always gives us more than we can thank you for here on youtube it will be so super if you can make video on that thanks

[@gingerjewel9634]

I love your tutorials. I noticed you don't use big eye needles. Do you use English #10 or #12 and is there a benefit not to use the big eye needles?

[@crissycricristinabuzzoni4638]

Wonderful! I share! 💖💖💖

[@betsinewbury4670]

Hi Jill - Thanks for the video of the wonderful project! I am wondering how long it takes you to make one of these bracelets. I have been working on my first one for the last two weeks ... well, not 100% of the time, but I probably have 30 - 40 hours in so far ... and I only have one and a half of the long legs. I am using 15/0 Thanks!

[@rosacastillo1588]

Are the 15/0 are delicas or 15/0 round??

[@alaredhead1]

Dear Jill, Thank you so much for doing this video to go along with the pattern in the book. As a "leftie", sometimes what appears to be a simple pattern will take me longer. IE, I have to do it wrong to get it right. Seeing it in person is such a big help. Say "Hi" to your mom for me. viki in ala

[@damonturnbull5903]

LOVE IT

[@chrisp8409]

Beautiful. Pay attention to the teacher and count out the sixty beads for your ring or expect to have to up your reading glass prescription. I must be a tight beader as I had to do 65 rows to to get a circle that wasn't wonky. Ha

[@julialewis1466]

Do you have suggestions for type of end caps if we can't get the hand of the beaded?

[@ellefrance2008]

Love!

[@melissaweiss3332]

As usual so beautiful,how many beads do we need?

[@JillWisemanDesigns]

The information for that is in the book.

[@melissaweiss3332]

+Jill Wiseman thanks I have ordered the book

[@sweetbamabelle]

Jill Wiseman Jill, I absolutely love your online tutorials and designs. But to put a tutorial up and refuse to answer a basic question such as what color seed bead? not only seems unlind, but as if Selling books is what this is all about. We all have to make a living, but kindness never trumps commerce.

[@tiffanywells774]

i agree. there is a lot of information that she leaves out that ive noticed. thats why i rarely every even click on Jill's tutorials. if i had the book i wouldnt need to watch the online tutorials. if you want to sell your tutorials than dont put them on you tube. use Etsy or some other medium. people do it all the time. ive seen her on jewel school on JTV but the instruction booklets are usually way too expensive considering i can get the same info online for free.

[@genevieveberens8299]

I absolutely love this. I am going to try to make a few of them by mothers day *wish me luck* Anyway, I was wondering Can 11/0 Delicas be used for this? I tried doing in 15/0s but for my first go round they're too small and my eyes are having a hard time focusing. I have regular 11/0's, but thought I'd ask about the delicas. I don't know if they're too squarish/roundish (my own spelling) to use.

[@genevieveberens8299]

+Genevieve Berens I had time to read through all the comments, and see that at some point in the video you mention why not to use delicas. I haven't made it through the whole video yet, but since it's mentioned, I'll stick to either the 15/0s or 11/0s. =)

[@jesutofunmiA]

What beading thread do you use please?

[@lamiajalal5884]

What is the bead colour of the bracelet??in the thumnnail?
