Prepare Your Materials: Gather quad bow beads, TU et beads, 15/0 seed beads, 2mm crystals, and the required thread and needles. Set Up the Clasp: Use a size 8 Dragon thread with size 10 needles. Attach the clasp and reinforce it by threading through multiple times. Start the Pattern: Use seed beads and TU et beads to create the initial crisscross pattern. Ensure that each bead placement mirrors the opposite side. Add Quad Bow Beads: Place the quad bow beads, stitching through each hole in sequence. Secure the bead with seed beads and crystals as you progress. Reinforce and Connect Sections: Repeat the crisscross technique and strengthen connections by looping through multiple bead rows. Finish with the Clasp: Add a final row of beads and secure the other side of the clasp. Reinforce the area to prevent any thread from loosening. Embellish (Optional): Glue a cabochon into the clasp for a decorative touch. Let it dry and trim any excess thread.
