Sivani –
You ask about the order of work. This is a sample from my scrumptious surfaces class – so I am going to be cheeky and not going to answer your question as it is the class. It would be unfair to those who have paid for it.
I've been following along for a while now, continually amazed by all you do but especially by the band sampler.
I wonder what your order of work was here? First worked the various buttonhole wheels, then the french knots and bullions, and finally the beads? Or…?
