I had the stitching all done prior to our Stitch-in yesterday. I manipulated the overdyed so that the dark areas fell on the outer edge and the light portion of ThreadworX 1006 appeared in the full diamonds to emphasize the diamond motifs in Ribbon 2.

With a little push, the Silver Square (MA006) metallic accent fit perfectly into the bed of beads, which was then anchored into place with another bead. I used 2 strands of beading thread. Believe it or not, that’s the beading needle laying in the yellow area looking mangled! It started out straight.

I would have gotten it done during our Stitch-in, but since we were at Fireside Stitchery, I spent some time buzzing around the threads for my butterfly. I found some good ones, but that is for another post.
