Always a pleasure to watch you, love your tutorials so easy to follow. Thank you again Gina!
Gina, thank you so much. I have been watching both of you channels for several months. Your designs are beautiful and your instructions are easy to follow. Most especially I want to thank you for your generosity in letting your veiwers, followers, sell your designs. I can only speak for myself, but I'm 70 and I really love and need to keep my hands busy. Selling my work will help buy new beads. Thank you again for all that you share.
I have tried several times but it never seems to work out the way it should...
Thank you Gina I made a beautiful bracelet.
Thank You for this lovely piece of Jewellery to wear proudly xo

Thank you! I'm a newbie but love learing these different beading techniques. Your videos are so easy to learn from and you explain so well! And your designs are so pretty too🧡
You are very welcome, thank you very much for the nice comments, I appreciate the time you took to write to me😁❤️❤️
I love this. I am just getting into beading and i think this may be the perfect beginner project for me.
Yes, it’s a good one to start with, have fun!
I was gifted with several large tubes of Czech 12/0 seed beads last year and was frustrated at how wonky and irregular they were. I didn’t know what I could really use them for and it saddened me as they were a gift from my dear cousin. I’m so happy to now know I can use those seeds so this project! Thanks for sharing and sparing me the waste! I’ve done Russian Spirals before but it’s been awhile. Your so easy to follow! ❤️ I love to watch your tutorials!
I am so happy you can use your beads. I hate wasting them because they are not perfect. It’s always nice to find a way to put them to use. I am sure they will beautiful. Thank you for the nice note, I am glad you like the videos!💕
Such an excellent video with the best and clearest instructions! You used your camera so well to give us close-up views. Thanks!!!
Thank you so much!!! I made mine with 11/0 gold and 15's black and it's really pretty!! and thank you for show us how to add the clasp!! :)
You are welcome, glad you liked this one!
Nice relaxing and helpful video. Thank you
You are welcome 💕
Very pretty. Thank you so much. Another new stitch. I am having so much fun beading!
Yay! I am glad you are having fun, that’s what it’s all about!
GGC's Beginning Beaders I was just working with this stitch! Addictive being a beader. My brother suggested that I get a tool to make the beading go faster. I said NO! I AM A PURIST! 😂
Judith Heinemann LOL, yes keep it pure, for sure!😜
It is so simple with you, thank you so much!!
You are welcome 💚
Pretty nails for teaching.
I just watched your 1st video and you answered my questions! Cheers Moira
Fantastic!
Just made a Keychain. Thanks for the easy directions. Love your videos.
I am happy to hear that. You are welcome, thank you for watching and commenting 💕
Thanks for sharing how to end the spiral!
Ohio 🇺🇸
omg it worked :) thank you for sharing beautiful. I love the way you teach and all the information needed wow....I am really happy doing this. When I watched how you did it, I thought no way will I be able to do this. It looked like i stuffed it up at first but i continued and it spiraled beautifully. cheers.
Emanuela Davis LOL! I am So happy that you are so happy! Nothing feels better than successfully learning something new!
Excellent video. The best one on russian spiral I've seen so far. Thank you.
Thank you, so happy to hear that!
Always scared to try this, but you describe the directions so clear and percise Thanks for being a great teacher going to buy some czech beads ❤
Fabulous! Enjoy learning a new stitch!
:) great idea! Thank you for sharing 😊 happy to find your channel!
I am happy you found my channel too! Nice to have you here❤️
Thank you Gina, you have explained it in very simple way, such that i can feel confident to experiment with different size beads. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Take care!
You are very welcome, have fun experimenting 💙
I don't know how many times I have tried to do this stitch and give up until I found this video. All of the rest of the beaders do this step up thing that always looks wrong and is confusing as heck. Thanks for your video.
I know what you are saying, when I was learning this stitch I had the same issue. That is why, though, I do step up, I do not make it a big deal on the video, it’s not an obvious step up, and to make so, makes it confusing.
Gina I did it, Thanks to you, the step up always confused me I am new and your tuturials are excellent Kirsten D Ont Canada you dont even mention step up Thanks for that ❤
LOL, I am so happy for you! This is a modification with out an obvious, confusing step up, always hated that step up thing!😁
Thanks again for these easy instructions! Great idea ! I think I'll use Green Bay Packers' colors. That should really sell here in Wisconsin!
Yes, it would. People really seem to like these key chains.
Very nice video. I will be making this for a key chain.
Good, I am glad!😃
Thanks for sharing Love ...... your vids ...Working on the keychain cause I thought the keychains will be great gifts for the holiday
+Rebecca Haynes Yes, they are. People really like them.
I love your videos so easy to follow I'm new to beading and I'm sure I will manage this. Thank you for teaching how to do it.💕💕❤️😍😍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👏🏻👏🏻
You are very welcome, have fun!
Hello...I’ve watched your video like 3 or 4 times and I finally finished my key chain.
Although I wasn’t able to do it exactly like yours (bc I couldn’t find any end caps in my stash). so I just hid the threads as best I could, and I have to say it looks great. Tysm for the pattern and most of all the tutorial...thx again and plz stay safe!
I am very happy to hear this video was helpful. I am also happy you were able to end the piece on your own. That’s great!💕
Muy lindo tu trabajo felicitaciones
+Rut Correa gracias🌸
Great video, thank you. 🤩
thank you for your very clear and easy tutorial. I so agree with you that chec beads or other non-japanese beads are as good and much more economical.
Yes, indeed, they are very usable!
Thank you Gina. I made 4 of these design already. :)
Wow, you are a busy girl💕
@@GGCBeginningbeaders indeed. lol send them off as gifts. Made another 3 for my 2 kids and husband. Thanks for sharing your creativity Gina.
You make look easy enough , that I can try it! Thank you.
I will try this Russian Spiral because you make it easy to do. Thank you.
+Carol Trumble yes, give it a go!💕😁
Thank You I made a beautiful key chain. I have tried to learn this before but you cleared up my doubts that I could !!thanks for your great teaching!!
You are very welcome, so happy it was helpful 🌹
Love it! I made my first one really quickly and easily. The end caps are beautiful and again so easy to complete. TFS your time and talent x
+Faye Hadfield you are very welcome 🌹
+Faye Hadfield you are very welcome!
Très très bien expliqué clair et nette au niveau de la vidéo 😉
Merci 👍
You are very welcome, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Gina, thank you so much for this video, I have been trying to learn russian spiral for years. I have a question for you, How do you get it to tighten up?
çok teşekkür ederim ben de mavi beyaz boncuktan yaptım harika oldu elinize sağlık
Thanks Gina thank you for this great tutorial, I’ve finally got it right thanks to you. Did you ever do the tutorial on the tubular chenille stitch, I would love to learn that too. Thanks for your great channel 😄
No, but I will, soon. May be a few weeks, I am taking a bit of a break this month to help my mother after knee replacement surgery, it will be a bit before I can actually leave her side.
Great video!! I have not seen the bead caps shown as good as you in this tutorial. I have always been afraid to make a spiral because I think I would make a mess. Haa Question, could you use a thread guard between the closed jump ring and bead cap? Not sure that would look very good or would work very well. Thank you again for this video. ♥
+Bella Bead actually that works great, just takes some coordination to do so.
Bella Bead i
Great video Thx
You are very welcome!
It’s beautiful, and I am struggling to learn.....hope I will learn at the earliest
Just take it step by step, go slow, you will learn💜
Gracias porque aprendí hacer la pulsera en espiral gracias a la señora quién está haciendo con las tapitas Azules y las doraditas con ella logré aprender hacerla muy amable

Thanks. Perfect.
You are very welcome!
Lindo e bem facil de fazer,com sua aula.

Hi Gina. I know you answered a question regarding a thread protector and you said that it would work. I was wondering if a Bead would also work between the bead cap and the closed jump ring? Thank you for your awesome videos!
Joselyn Sphar sure, but you have to be able to sew through it many times and the jump ring will still be in contact with the thread, but it will look prettier.
Great instructional video. Thanks. Would it be possible to thread all the beads in sequence before
starting the project? I bead crochet a lot of necklaces and first string all the beads. Just a thought!!
You can try it, seems like an awful lot of extra work though. And cumbersome to work around. But, of course, I could be wrong.
Wow luv it is easier because there's no step up thank you.
Brenda Classen actually there is a step up, it just isn’t a real obvious one, that’s why I don’t emphasize it. It just makes it confusing to do so. I am glad you like it!
It’s a little like the peyote stitch. But taking two beads at a time instead of just one. Right?
I love it
I am happy about that!❤️
Hello Gina I'm thrilled with your videos and will try my first Russian Spiral chain shortly. What size in millimeters are the 8o and 11o beads. Thank you Moira
I see you answered your own question...LOL❤️ glad you found the other video.🌺
First, let me thank you for explaining step by step how to make this beautiful piece. Its the best of all videos I watched as I'm a beginner and I'm starting to make one- thanks to you. Second I have two different colors of 11/0 seed beads,is it ok to continue with same size or is it better like yours (11/0 and 8/0)? Again thanks for the video
+1superlovefire you can do it with two different colors of the same size. I think using two different sizes adds texture and make the spiral effect stand out more. But, either way it work out pretty.
+1superlovefire you can do it either way, doesn’t really matter. The diameter will be small with all 11/os. Thanks for watching!
Excelente ecplicacion. Sugerencia: poner el texto en la parte superior del video a fin de no perder la visualizacion del proyecto. Thank you
You are very welcome, I am happy you like the video!❤️
Thanks for the video. Its helpful. I just wanted to know how can I add new thread to russian spiral? Thanks.
Watch this video...
th-cam.com/video/HycMjqV_DCM/w-d-xo.html
I hope you still read comments on this older video. My question is, if I would like to add another color how many of each would i need. Example. say i wanted 11/0s 8/0s and 15/0s how many of each would i need.?
That’s an impossible question to answer, just have a tube of each on hand and use what you need. Counting seed beads is not something I do. I just make piles on my bead mat and use them.
excellent video! Can I use 11/0 and 6/0 beads?
yes, it would be better with 8/o and 6/o's, but it will work with 11/o and 6/o's fine. might actually be very interesting.
Can you use beads that are all the same size? I am thinking about trying this in all silver (plated) 2 or 3mm beads.
I would think that would work as long as you use two colors, otherwise it will be difficult to see your path and the spiral will not show with out a contrast of colors
Thank you.
So pretty!! Question, what is the difference between the 6 lb and 8 lb fire line? I’m seeing quite a few videos that say you can use either so I’m curious about how they differ. Thank you in advance! 💜
8lb is a heavier test weight than the other, and the diameter is larger. 8 lb is better for larger beads or beads with large holes. 6lb is better for lots of passes through beads, especially smaller beads.
GGC's Beginning Beaders Ahhhh, that makes sense! Thank you so much!!
I love you tutorial. What if i don't have enough to finish my project?
Ophelia Sahakian make it shorter or get more beads or make one half with your starting colors and the other with different colors, if you have more beads in other colors.
Hi. Thanks for this. I have a question. Why do some people “step up” after each series of 3 sts? How does this change the look of the piece?
It’s just another way to make the spiral, but it confuses people, so I do not use that method. It does not really change the look of the spiral much.
Hello! How can I continue if thread is short, how can I add a new one?
+Daira Jonkus th-cam.com/video/HycMjqV_DCM/w-d-xo.html follow the link, it will show you how to add thread.
How many blue and yellow beads will I have to add to the thread to make a thicker necklace?
Just use bigger beads
from which craft store can I by all sizes of Toho seed bead in bulk
+joy nwaneri try eurekacrystalbeads.com
+joy nwaneri there is also Tohos at Joann's and Michaels but they are not in bulk and I don't think they sell 8/Oz, only 11/o and 6/is.
Great video! If you were to sell them, what would you charge?
+Kathy Ryan I charge 15 dollars, I use cheaper Czech seed beads and can make them pretty quickly.
I have a question can I use the same size bead or does the size matter
Yes you can it doesn’t matter.
You may have covered this elsewhere, but you don’t include a “step-up” . Is there a reason you don’t include this? Haven’t tried this yet bur I surely will!
There is a step up, it’s just not obvious and only confuses the viewer, so I do the stitch properly, I do step up, I just don’t make a big deal out of it.
+Can you use all 11/0s
candiedyams yes you can. The pattern is the same for all sized beads, it will just give you different looks ☺
+candiedyams yes, but, make sure you use two different colors at least or the Spiral will not show well and it will be very hard to figure out where to sew the next stitch.
Hello Ma'am
Your teaching is good and easy to understand, I also followed your method and made nice necklace, but how to send you pic, please let me k ow.
Thank you.
Can you use bicones?
Sure
Che misura sono le perline?
ho usato 11/0 e 8/0
Can I do this with just 11/0 ? That's all I have.
Lorraine Brooks yes, but use two colors so you can see the spiral and know what needs to cross over.
+Lorraine Brooks yes, use two colors or you won’t see the spiral effect
😍
The yellow background is not good in my opinion...can hardly see a thing. I am a beginner and and need to see up close so sadly this video is not for me.
It was the bead pad I had at the time. I am sorry it did not work out for you.
@@GGCBeginningbeaders Had completely forgotten about this remark - sorry Gina.
Still love your tutorials though and almost finished my Tiny Tennis bracelet.

Do you mean Dumpster Diving? Perhaps you should learn to spell if you are going to write an insult to a stranger, who obviously is brighter than you are.
