Miranda -- I put all the beads on the thread before I wound the shuttles. I used a long needle threader to do it. That was easier in this case, because I carried it around with me -- I didn&#39;t need to worry about carrying around the bead container.Martyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12660864900839865295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-24012433127010557592009-07-05T22:17:01.422-06:002009-07-05T22:17:01.422-06:00love the butterfly! the 40 bazillion beads give more than a sparkle to the blue one ;)Valeriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07751165269626905417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-8425648022779157692009-07-03T13:51:24.069-06:002009-07-03T13:51:24.069-06:00Marty, you are such a talented designer! Just curious- did you thread the forty bazillion beads on the ball and shuttle, or did you use Jane&#39;s method of joining them as you need them? I can&#39;t quite decide which technique I like better.Mirandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-4316255237399519872009-07-03T04:49:41.230-06:002009-07-03T04:49:41.230-06:00Beautiful butterflies, I&#39;m sure it took quite awhile to add the forty-bazillion beads, but WOW was it worth it, the result is great.Bonniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11764499482389555340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-62966528886210071522009-07-02T18:59:07.595-06:002009-07-02T18:59:07.595-06:00Hi Marty: <br />Congratulations on the great work he has done, butterflies are very, very beautiful, thanks for sharing with us their work. <br />The person receiving these beautiful butterflies will be very happy. <br />Greetings<br />Irmamamatejedorahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01555966557771488573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-26828036831081550502009-07-02T07:57:02.991-06:002009-07-02T07:57:02.991-06:00I love how your forty bazillion beads make it sparkle.

But you&#39;re right its probably easier in the long run to write out the pattern. I just doesn&#39;t feel that way!victats@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07664287364096706053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9150831844446988363.post-21011142850716204552009-07-02T03:17:45.586-06:002009-07-02T03:17:45.586-06:00Those butterflies are pretty!
