Just a quick note that I remade the bear heart with size 20 thread (a couple different brands) and everything worked out just fine. So you don't have to use the DMC thread. I've added size 20 thread as a possibility on the pattern. Also, Lady Picot was able to use a different bead and everything turned out just fine, so don't feel you need to use a bear bead just something similar in size. Tuesday, August 17, 2010

Victats,
ReplyDeleteI really like your bear heart. Glad to know that you & a friend have tried it with other beads & threads to make sure others could make it no matter what they use. Thanks for doing that for everyone.
