Please no needle tatters unless you can ‘translate’ from shuttle to needle on your own. Thanks.

This is an advanced pattern and will be a good way to learn about using many beads on picots.  Beads will be added to very long picots and these will be made into a double long beaded picot.  Also adding beads to the core thread will be taught. 

Advanced: Knowledge of split rings is required.  Other techniques will be taught during class.

Materials:
No. 20 tan/brown/white thread, two ⅛” beads (eyes), seed beads - 2 colours for wings, yellow and black for tail. Also – safety pins or paperclips (7), 1” gauge and some short lengths of contrasting thread to use as ‘markers’.
