How to do Bead Embroidery with the Tacked Herringbone Stitch

The Tacked Herringbone Stitch provides a base that can be dotted with shiny beads on the tips. It will look gorgeous and add weight to borders. I have shown one sample here. Try out other variations and share them with us!

Fig 1: Make a row of the Herringbone Stitch.	Fig 2: Now start pinning down the little intersections. Come out from inside the intersection. Slip in a bead.
Fig 3: Push the bead down and take the needle through the fabric on the outside of the intersection. Avoid making crosses as in the typical Tacked Herringbone method.	Fig 4: Work the entire row this way, adding beads over each intersection.
