Questions about bead work
Digital Caveman:
Does anyone have suggestions on how to attach a bead weaving to leather work? I'd like to trim a new quiver this way somehow.
Pat B:
I would stitch it on. You'll have to make the holes with an awl and only penetrate the leather about 1/2 way through. You could just tack it with a stitch every inch or so using the same method.
Digital Caveman:
That's kind of what I thought.
I tried hot-gluing the beads at first so I could undo it if I wanted. This worked well enough as a temporary solution to get an idea of the finished product, but the glue eventually let go when flexed.
YosemiteBen:
you can also use a craft glue called E6000. My friends are beaders and that is what they use. it flexes and you can sew through it.
