Thanks for posting this short and simple tutorial. My daughter, nine, got a host of beads for her CampFire vest. So, we are trying to figure out how best to attach them and this reinforced what I remember learning in a Cub Scout project decades ago. THANK YOU!. We'll post a photo or small video of what did.

@rodfleck It's a pleasure! Looking forward to seeing her Campfire vest :))

I went to a class one time, the instructor showed us a knot that wouldn't come undone when you're applying a single random bead and not carrying your thread. The object in not carrying the thread is not wanting it to show through the fabric in surface beading. Can you post a video showing the appropriate knot, I'd be forever grateful. Shirley
