My French Beaded Hydrangea pattern PDF is 8 pages long and contains 26 high quality pictures along with detailed written instructions to guide you in making your own beaded hydrangea.

There are two options for leaves, one has netted edges as shown in the display above, and the other is a simple scalloped leaf.

You will need to know these French Beading Techniques to complete your hydrangea:
– Basic Frame
– Scallops
– Lacing
– Ruffles
– Flossing the Stem (Optional)

The techniques above are taught for free in the Learn French Beading section of my website.

These French Beading Techniques are fully demonstrated within the tutorial (no prior knowledge required):

– Continuous Basic Frame
– Netting

The tutorial is written in English using both Imperial and Metric terms for measurement.
