How to Bead Tubular Herringbone Stitch with Two Colors Tutorial

✿ Hey beautiful! It’s Gina from https://orchidandopal.com. In today's tutorial I will show you how to create a simple seed bead rope while learning the tubular herringbone beading stitch, using two different colors. I will create a separate video to teach the tubular herringbone technique in more than two colors, in the future. Since this is a technique video, we will not be creating a finished piece this time. Instead, I will show you how to begin beading tubular herringbone, how to tie off, and add new thread, and we will discuss some options for ending the rope.

This bead weaving basic technique has many off-shoots, including twisted tubular herringbone, which I will share soon, in a separate video. It's also possible to complete this design using a single color, or create striped patterns, and more. Have fun exploring this versatile bead weaving stitch!

✿ Credit: Artists spend countless hours on their designs from concept to completion. I have the utmost respect for other artists, and the time/energy behind their original designs. I will always make a point to give credit where credit is due because I expect the same in return. Of course, in some rare circumstances, artists' beading designs may overlap in certain ways; after all, there are only so many combinations in which beads may be put together. It's possible for artists to simply “be on the same wavelength.” "Great minds think alike," and all that. :)

✿ Please note: Orchid and Opal is a one-woman show. I (Gina) happily work full-time creating new designs, finished pieces, written patterns, and video content. However, there's so much more work that goes unseen. I state this to let you know (1) how passionate I am about what I do, and (2) as a fellow human, I make mistakes, and do the best I can while also trying to maintain a work-life balance. I always strive to thoroughly research topics, educate myself, and present you with the most accurate content, to the very best of my ability. Thanks for joining me on this creative journey!
