Beading needles of choice – I recommend a size 10 and a finer one. The size 10 is perfect for helping you to ‘vet’ Seed beads with small holes as if the bead doesn’t easily fit over this needle it will cause you a problem later on. The finer needle is useful for Zipping.
Thread – I recommend a flexible thread i.e. NOT Fireline but instead something like One G, KO, Miyuki Thread or Nymo. However, if you only like working in Fireline then please do use it but ensure you keep your work flexible.
