Have you ever thought up a beautiful focal for your designs but couldn't find the perfect colors or matching charms to fit your vision? Bring your vision to life with brick stitch You can create all kinds of shapes with this simple stitch. Once you've created the perfect shape, showcase it in a bracelet like Cheri did, or try something else. You can sew a pin onto the back, dangle them from earrings, and more. See more inspiration for small brick stitch pieces and even some peyote stitch projects in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Working with about a yard of thread, add a stopper bead with a long tail. We are going to start our feather from the center and build one side up. You will use the tail to build the other side. The stopper bead will help you keep track of orientation when you are flipping your project.

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!
