The Program:

Let’s do Brick stitch!! These simple adorable flower studs will make you realize the potential for Brick stitch. With posts to glue to the back or clips that glue on too!! Not sure how to do Brick stitch? Or think it’s complicated to increase and decrease?  Joyce von Lienen will give you tricks to work through Brick stitch and peyote techniques to follow this easy pattern, hopefully most will finish one earring in the evening

Supplies / Instructions:

There will be several color combinations to choose from, or bring your own beads if you have a favorite size 11 delica color. Kits are $10. You need to bring size 10 or 12 needle, 6 lb Crystal fireline, a gel superglue such as Loctite and a bead mat. 

There is a lot of information about Frocrochet out right now. Ever look at a pattern to find out it’s bead crochet and move on because it’s not your thing? We all get nervous about loading all those beads and making one small mistake.  Well, Frocrochet is nothing more than Brick stitch in a circle. Joyce is planning a future class to teach this, and this project will show you how brick stitch is quick and easy.
