Sometimes I have absolutly no idea where ideas come from, for this seam I looked at the fabric and saw a beaded edge on it.
I have left part of the seam unfinished to show that the first row of beads is stitched at 1/4″ intervals with the whole facing down from the seam…I stitched the first row of beads in place because I wanted the beads to sit flat on the fabric and not stitck up.
To work the rest of the pattern I went down through an anchored bead, picked up a brown, a black and another brown bead…Put the needle back up through only the black bead, picked up a brown bead and up through the next anchored bead in the row and take a backstitch on the back before taking the needle to the front again and down through the same anchor bead. you may need to jiggle the thread through the beads to tighten up the loop
