    Quick Project Steps

    Step 1: Prepare your materials, including pearls, bicones, and seed beads. Cut about 5 feet of Dragon Thread and add a stop bead. Step 2: Start the Right Angle Weave (RAW) by creating the first unit with four sides using pearls, bicones, and seed beads. Step 3: Continue building more units, connecting them by sewing through adjacent beads. Step 4: Attach the two-strand Garden Clasp using seed beads to form a secure loop on each side. Reinforce the thread multiple times for durability. Step 5: Add the diagonal embellishment by stitching through the top layer with seed beads in a repeating pattern to create the zigzag effect. Step 6: Finish by tying off and burning the thread ends. Ensure all beads and the clasp are tightly secured.

    Of the items I have received, they are well made. The offer of free patterns to subscribe has not panned out, as I have never received them. I have emailed, but have not received a reply. Their ordering system does not work right for these "free" patterns, and I ended up paying for one of them. The "continue to checkout" will only work with the billing address and not the shipping address, so there they all sit, in my orders tab, with just ship to United States on them. They have not even been shipped. There is no way to correct this, and they do not answer my emails.
