French Knots vs. Sead Beads

I've been working away on my ABCs and I'm really enjoying stitching this piece. This piece has quite a few French knots and somewhere along the way, I've lost my ability to make them. The trouble is keeping them all consistent. I like them nice and uniform and I'm having trouble with them. So, I cut them all out and I'm using seed beads instead. It's a nice change and it does give the piece a nice little sparkle.





I forgot to include a backside photo. I'll remember to do it on my next update!

Well the seed beads look great. I want to do a classic sampler in the worst way, and you inspire me Catherine
