Happy Friday! 💜 This video covers the basics of the flat herringbone beading stitch, and all the tips and tricks I could think of that I have learned along the way. More flat herringbone tutorials will be coming, so I hope this video is helpful! Here is the link to the corresponding blog post: www.orchidandopal.com/blog/how-to-flat-herringbone-beading-stitch-101-tutorial. Let us know if you have any additional tips/tricks to share with everyone. Happy beading!! 💜
My opinion is that you are a fantastic teacher. I am a visual learner and your tutorials are excellent, as well as, your verbal instructions❣️I have never mastered herringbone stitch and now “I think I can, I think I can”. Thank you!
It has all ways annoyed me that no one has shown this fabulous technique of how to hide the thread on the sides. Thank you for clearing this up for me as I don’t like thread showing or adding the extra bead on the side as it looks so uneven on a beautifully symmetrical piece of work. Thank you so much. It may sound so simple but when you have OCD beading traits it can make you not happy that it is (in my mind) obviously so wrong. New subscriber here in the UK 🇬🇧 ❤😊
@ORCHIDandOPAL it really is so simple but you don't hear of this technique any where. I am so grateful that you share your incredible talent with us. Thank you. 😊
Gina, this is one of the best videos I've seen on the flat herringbone stitch. You do a fantastic job of explaining how to do each step. I also love your tip on turning around and not leaving any exposed thread. Thank you.
Will you have a video of the bracelet pictured at the introduction? Also, I really want to learn how to make the button hole. Thank you for this tutorial. It is very easy to follow and and I learned a lot!
I enjoy your videos so much, love them! I wanted to ask you if you have a video on how to do the bracelet with the buttonhole like the one you showed at the end. Thank you for all your teachings.
I have struggled with this stitch for YEARS. You made it so easy to understand. You’ve opened a whole bunch of new options for me! Seriously excited to try this stitch after years of avoiding anything herringbone. THANK YOU!!!!
Hi Gina, I love all the bracelets. I have not done this stitch yet. I am going to put it on the to do list that is so long now I will never catch up with it. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend.
Hello. I have watched several videos for the harringbone stitch. Yours is by far the best tutorial for a beginner. You explain thing very clearly and you go slow enough to follow what you are doing. Do you teach for a living, if not you might have missed your calling. Thank you for the tutorial.
Gina, you are an excellent instructor. Could you possibly include a video that shows the process to add thread? I’m totally new to bead weaving and enjoy your videos very much.
Hi Gina!! Thanks for sharing this stitch!! I love the block color bracelet you showed! Can this stitch be done with Czech glass beads? I have so many strands of beautiful Czech glass beads and never really know what to do with them.....other than used as spacers or on beading wire. Thanks again!! ❤️📿🐾🥰
Hi Melonee! You sure can! It’s best done with small, uniform beads, so it will depend on which type of Czech glass, but all are technically possible with different results. 💜
Hi! I love your bead weaving ideas!💗💕 I do have a question about your supplies though. The photo on the title page of this video has some beautiful multicolored seed beads in the project, but I don’t know how to find them because I don’t know what they’re called or where to buy them. Could you help me please? I love the way they look in the bracelet you made!!💗💕 Thank you!
Hi Bernadette! Thanks so much for your question regarding those specific seed beads. They are called Miyuki 8/0 with Picasso Finish. I used the transparent and opaque red brown varieties. I hope this helps!
Hi Judy! I haven't done a tutorial on that one yet, specifically, but I will try to plan one for the future. Basically, I left a slit, about 2 beads wide, and about as tall as the button, vacant in the rows where I wanted the button to sit. Then, I sewed several additional full rows of the flat herringbone to finish the edge of the bracelet. I hope that helps a little in the meantime! 💜💜💜
GM MRS. GINA I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT NEEDLE 2 USE THE DAWG ON THIS ALWAYS POP OR BEND I TRIED THE ONES FROM WALMART, JOANN, HOBBY LOBBY, MICHAEL'S IDK WHAT 2 DO

What a great idea to do the turn around after catching the thread bridge! I'll have to try that. I'd love to see the buttonhole technique too!

Absolutely! Thanks for asking, Annette! I will try to do that at some point. In the meantime I think Potomac Beads has one that can hold you over. 💜
Thank You

@@ORCHIDandOPAL Thank you so much for your prompt reply! I will look them up 😃
Thank you🤩🤩💜💜
My pleasure!! 💜💜💜
is it the same just doing the strands like for the braided bracelet you showed?
Yup, just building two beads on a single “tower of two.” Sorry I didn’t demonstrate a single. Let me know if you have any other questions! 😁💜
Very helpful ty
💜💜💜
How do I get to your video on the button hole in flat herringbone?
Hi Judy! I haven't done a tutorial on that one yet, specifically, but I will try to plan one for the future. Basically, I left a slit, about 2 beads wide, and about as tall as the button, vacant in the rows where I wanted the button to sit. Then, I sewed several additional full rows of the flat herringbone to finish the edge of the bracelet. I hope that helps a little in the meantime! 💜💜💜
GM MRS. GINA I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT NEEDLE 2 USE
THE DAWG ON THIS ALWAYS POP OR BEND I TRIED THE ONES FROM WALMART, JOANN, HOBBY LOBBY, MICHAEL'S

Hi I have enjoy learning beading . But where I live . I have trouble finding right beads and needle. I have trouble seeing the eye of the needle. But I am a older lady. I believe I can do this . But do want to learn . I like you take your time . Thanks
I’m so happy to have you here! Beading should be fun, and doesn’t need to be rushed. You can totally do it at your own pace. 😁 Thanks for watching!

Not sure what happened?? Lol looks like it got corrected shortly after. Thanks so much for watching! 😁💜
