Love this idea and technique. Can these beads get wet and will they maintain their shape afterwards?
Would love to learn to make these beads!
Love, love, love this. However, I would love to see how it used on a quilt. Also, what is that white roll you used to place the fabrics on?
And then, how do you use the beads? Seeing them on a quilt would have been nice. Wild Heather is great!
