ANNE FLERCHERdeveloped this stitch while using large-holed
breads to create a flat design. The unevenness
of the finished fabric reminds me of Roman
tile mosuics, especially if you add smaller-
Sized beads. I revel in the chaotic effect because 1

T have made several bracelets with this fun,

you are adding special beads.

22 Summer 1999 SEADWORK
1 began working this stitch with size 8° hex
beads, and later added size 8° seed beads to
extend my color palette. I suggest learning
the stitch on the hex beads; once you are
comfortable, incorporate other sizes or try
stringing smaller beads together to equal the
height of the size 8°. IF you try smaller seed
beads, use Japanese beads for their larger
hole size.

The technique involves creating a “net” by looping thread
over thread and interspersing with beads rather then
netting beads together as in other off-loom techniques.
uadruple helix is an African technique pop-
ularized by bead artist Virginia Blakelock
several years ago. Virginia's helix is made
with a visible spine that is either solid or dot-
ted, The technique involves creating a “net” by
looping thread over thread and interspersing with
beads rather then netting beads together as in
other of-Loom techniques
‘While attending and teaching at the Bodacious
Bead Show in New Jersey in 1999, 1 thought |
‘would experiment with helix colors. By just chang-
ing the colorway I realized I could create a braid
effect with the weave. This opened a whole win-
dow of opportunity, and I came up with some
pretty interesting designs
“The technique for the braid may be the one you
know; bur the application of colors i diferent. In-
scead of repeating the pattern of three base color
beads and two spine beads, you arrange the colors
to create the illusion ofa braid.

BRAID HELIX
‘Thread needle using 1% yards of chread and
leave a 6" tail. *Make a loop and hold it behind
and perpendicular to the dowel. While holding the
loop in place, bring the working thread under the
dowel and pass the needle through the loop from
front to back (Figure 1). Rep from * three more
times to resemble buttonhole stitches. To keep
cverything in place, tape the tail to the dowel
Position loops so that the rail is at the top of
the dowel.
Red 1: String 3 chocolate and 2 tan beads. Pass the
needle between the thread of the final loop and
the dowel. Pull the beads tight against the
dowel so the beads don't ereep over the loop.
Hold these beads in place as you string 3 can
and 2 smoke beads. Pass the needle beeween the
thread and the dowel again, and pull the beadstight againse the dowel, holding them in place.
String 3 smoke and 2 cream beads. Pass the
needle berween the thread and the dowel and
pull che beads tight against the dowel, holding
them in place (Figure 2). String 3 eream and. 2
chocolate beads. Pass the needle between the
thread and he dowel. PT the first bead of this
round to close the round.
Rad 2: String 3 chocolate and 2 tan beads. Pass the
needle between (not through) the 2 tan beads
of the fist set in Rnd 1. (Note: You are looping
thread over thread, not thread through beads)
Pull tight so thar the five beads lie directly
below the first see of Rd 1. Continue around
as you did in Rnd I: String 3 tan and 2 smoke
for the second set passing between the 2 smoke
in Rnd 1 string 3 smoke and 2 cream for the
third set passing berween the 2 cream in Rnd 1;
and string 3 cteam and 2 chocolate for the
fourth set passing beween the 2 chocolate in
Rnd 1
Rep Rnd 2 for the rest ofthe cord. After you've
completed 1, the helix should be sturdy enough
to remove from the dowel
Ifyou keep your tension tight with this weave,
you'll end up with a nice, sturdy cord. Don't pierce
your thread while working the helix or you'll have

ASSEMBLY
Dab a very small amount of glue to the under-
side of shaped blank and attach ultrasuede; center
first then smooth it out toward the edges, leaving
about" extea around all sides.
Dab a very small amount of glue on top of the
blank, lay beadwork on top, and position it care-
fully, leaving even margins around. Allow to dry.
Carefully trim the uleasuede, so thae when it’s
folded over the blank toward the front, it meets
the edges of the beadwork without overlapping.
Do not trim ends yet. Cuta V-shaped notch at the
comers, almost to the edge of the blank. Fold the
shore ends first, then the long sides, and stitch
through che ultrasuede along the corner seam
several times.
‘Note: If you're using a blank with square cor-
ners, adapt the following steps so that each end
bead is stitched ro the ultrasuede.
‘Cut 1 yards of thread and knot the end, leav-
ing about a 2" tail. Beg about 1” down one long
side, with beadwork face up. Pass the needle down
through the ultrasuede (which is not folded over
to the front at this point). Bring needle back up
around outside edge. Tuck thread til beeween the
ulerasuede and the blank.
Pass needle under a nearby edge thread (be-
‘ween 2 beads), heading away from outside edge.
Anchor the thread in place with your thumb while
stitching the next few stitches and pull the thread
tightly in order to keep ultrasuede snug agains¢ the
‘edge of beadwork (Figure 4).

Keeping che ultrasuede wrapped around coward
front of the bracelet, pass needle down through
the ultrasuede 2 bead lengths down from first
stitch. Continue in chis manner to end, passing
needle under every other edge thread and ceinfo
ing the end stitches as you stitch. Pass the needle
through several beads before trimming the thread
close to the beadwork.
