Quick Project Steps

Preparing the Loop for Closure: Measure and cut your leather cording, then create a loop that fits the button snugly.
Adding Seed Beads: Begin adding Miyuki Seed Beads 11/0 by stitching them in place, increasing from one bead to creating a base for the tiles. Incorporating Tiles: Alternate between Czech tiles and Potomac metal tiles, following a specific pattern or creating your own.
Completing the Beadwork: After adding the desired number of tiles, taper off by decreasing the number of seed beads.
Adding the Button: Split the leather cording and position the button, securing it by wrapping the thread around both the button and the leather.
Finishing Touches: Trim the excess leather and apply glue for durability.
