Ask the Experts Seed Beads Q&A

I want to cover a dowel with beads. It is the top part of a beaded wall hanging. What stitch would work best? Thanks!

Tubular peyote stitch is perfect for covering a dowel rod. Using the same size of beads throughout, it makes a sturdy and uniform tube. Because the beaded wall hanging is likely to be heavy, use FireLine® thread for a secure and strong stitch.
