“This Stegosaurus Drop grabbed my interest the first time I saw it and never let go. I even took advantage of a good bead sale and ordered the supplies before getting the pattern. I’m pumped to start making these, especially now; they’ll be a delightful diversion!”

“My Yoake Bottle is finished! I’m going to try making my own cabochon for the front – just waiting for the clear cabs to arrive. This may just be my favourite pattern ever, it was a joy to bead and went together perfectly. Huge thanks to @pinkhot_uk for a great workshop.”
