Create a circular strip with alternating units involving StormDuo and seed beads.
After completing the strip, add 15/0 seed beads along the edges where StormDuo beads are present.

I spent half an hour trying to login, my password didn’t work and yet the software wouldn’t let me change my password. I couldn’t even set up a new account. Frustrating 10!
