Hi. I'm not making a comment on this article; i just have a question. I'm fairly new to beading (and blogging!) and i'd like to know if anyone can tell me how many delicas or similar beads make an inch in brickstitch and flat peyote. Thank you Laura M

I downloaded the Ukranian net collar and started working on it -- so far, so good! I'm not an expert beader, and it's been very easy to work.

Having said that: I noticed a mistake in the pattern chart. Compare row 6 to row 11, then compare them both to the photo. Row 11 is wrong: it has one red and one yellow bead where it should have two yellow beads (ie: it should be symmetrical to row 6).

I was getting Beading Daily on a regular basis, now I do not recieve it anymore!!!! I received an email stating that the Beading Daily website had had a problem and dropped several of us and to please re-register. I have done so several times and it says that I am a member, but I still do not receive it....I miss getting Beading Daily. How can I get it again, it says that I am a member but nothing is received? There is no area on your website to list problems.

Leslie, Ihave been searching (to no avail) for directions on how to do the "square stitch spiral" like the one D.Wedekind used in one of his projects. Could you possibly gives directions for a much longer spiral? You are terrific on BB&J -I have never beaded, but am now inspired to try--even bought a book .Thank you, pam

I would love to see more peyote, brick stitch and netting projects on your website and in Step by Step Magazine. Recently, some of the projects are so simple that a child can do them. That is no challenge for me. I only subscribe to Bead and Button and occasionally purchase a copy of Beadwork because they have projects from beginner to intermediate and above levels.

Thank you, Gail

Thank you so much for profiling my Chinese Lantern necklace in your post, today. As usual, the photography for the issue looks stunning, and I love the premise for the issue. I can't wait to read it!
