How to Design Embroidery Patterns: Learn Tambour Embroidery Chapter 5

Today's chapter in the "Learn Tambour Embroidery" series is a bit different! No demos, just an exploration of past projects - and the process I talk about here works for any kind of embroidery design process - but of course, I like beadwork so that's what we're focusing on!

I'm curious about what you think of this one - it's a bit different from the others, so let me know if it's helpful! As always, comments/questions/suggestions for future videos are VERY welcome! Don't worry - although this was originally going to be the last video in the series, I already have more planned, so stay tuned for next week!
