I once observed a herringbone stitch class that had painfully derailed. The teacher was talented and capable, but the chemistry just wasn't there and things didn't click. I kept seeing beautiful things made with herringbone stitch and heard all kinds of wonderful things, but after seeing the class go awry, I was a little put off by it.
The prompt for Day 23 of the Fusion Beads 30 Day Bead Challenge was to learn a new technique. I decided to finally try my hand at herringbone stitch and started a bracelet. It wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be and can't wait to finish this piece.

Herringbone rocks! I'm so glad you gave it another try - it's one of my favorite stitches because the drape is so soft and supple.
