Quick Project Steps

In this PotomacBeads tutorial, learn how to use square stitch and netting techniques to create the Astral Pendant. This is a simpler way to bezel set a cabochon to make a big and beautiful pendant.
1. Using a size 12 needle, put a stop bead onto 5 feet of Wildfire beading thread. Put on 42 seed beads and sew back through a few beads to create a circle. Get ready to add delica beads around the edge.
Watch the Astral Pendant tutorial to follow along with Allie's step-by-step directions to create the stunning beaded pendant.
3. Use a square stitch to design a bail for the pendant. Bring the needle and thread into the Quadbows below the bail and work down the back of the project towards the stop bead. Tie the two ends together. Burn the edges flush with the project.
Enjoy making the Astral Pendant. This astronomical pendant is sure to draw the gaze and compliments from others. Experiment with other colors and see what you can create!
