| Candy in Don Lynch's Basketweave Bead Technique |
This year I got my Christmas present a little early when Don Lynch of Associated Talents taught me how to attach beads in a basketweave-type pattern. Don invented this technique and often uses it on his models for his needlepoint designs. Now AT has started adding free stitch guides to their website and several of them show how to make your beads look amazing, courtesy of Don. You can see how he does it by heading over to the Chilly Hollow Stitch Guides blog and reading today's article, then following the link.
Just click on the magic carpet photo in the right hand column and you'll be whisked away. When you are done, ride the magic carpet again back here.

Merry Christmas, Jane. Thank you for link about Santa Don. A wonderful present indeed. Wishing you a Happy New Year. Hugs, Robin
Don's amazing. He has a knack for choosing fun stitches for simple designs that raise them into a fascinating and fun piece of stitching. The baskewoven beads technique is just one aspect of what Don is doing. Keep an eye on Associated Talents and you'll see what I mean!
