Notes: The seed beads' holes need to be large enough to string on 4-ply linen thread. In a package of seed beads, some will usually have larger holes than others. The "E" beads' holes should be large enough to string on two strands of 4-ply linen thread.

Supplier Information: 4-ply waxed linen thread is available by the yard at QuietfireDesign.com.
