Recommended Point ①

One of the best features of “Rakuchiku Felt” is how flexible it is.
You can use it for both bead embroidery and regular embroidery.
Of course, you can also combine both materials in one project. The possibilities are endless!

You can stitch with your favorite colors, so even with the same pattern, each person can create something unique and personal.

Recommended Point ②

You might worry about the printed lines showing after you finish stitching.
But don’t worry!

The printed pattern disappears cleanly with water!
After finishing your work, gently dab the surface with a cotton swab or handkerchief lightly dampened with water.

※Please note: heat may make the printed pattern harder to remove.

How to Do Continuous Bead Stitching

Continuous bead stitching is a method of sewing beads in a row.
Instead of attaching beads one by one, you stitch them continuously to create smooth lines or band-like patterns.
It is perfect for outlines and line designs.

①Bring the needle up where you want to place the beads.
②Thread 2 beads onto the needle, then insert the needle ahead by the width of the beads.
③Bring the needle up between the 2 beads, then pass the needle through the hole of the second bead.
④Add 2 more beads and repeat steps ①–③.
⑤Your continuous bead stitch is complete★
