It's fun to try the Russian spiral stitch in different color ways to see what kind of looks you can come up with. Cheri tried the stitch in both blue and orange colors to show how different the stitch looks when you switch up the colors. You can also switch up your bead shapes to create even more variation within the stitch. Learn how to do the Russian spiral stitch and see more design inspiration in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Watch our Artbeads Cafe episode for a video tutorial on how to do the Russian spiral stitch. You can also refer to our PDF Diagram. On a comfortable working length of thread, add one 3mm fire-polished bead in ColorTrends Saturated Metallic Lapis Blue, two Miyuki 11/0 round seed beads in seagreen AB-lined, one 3mm fire-polished bead in ColorTrends Saturated Metallic Neutral Gray, two seed beads, one 3mm fire-polished bead in ColorTrends Saturated Metallic Island Paradise, and two seed beads. Form a circle with your beads by looping the thread and tie a knot if desired. Move the needle so that it is coming out between the two seed beads in one of the seed bead pairs, as shown in Figure 1 of the PDF Diagram.

Nice choice! All or most of the products needed for this project are shown below with quantities. Sometimes we sell out of components and aren’t able to order more from the manufacturer (we know, it is very disappointing to us, too). Use the opportunity to mix up the design and make it yours by substituting similar products or altering the entire color scheme—it’s up to you!
