Every manufacturer has its own size and shape variations even within its own product group. Different manufacturers have different size and
shape variations even though they may be labelled the same between manufacturers.
This project works best with Miyuki® seed beads, Swarovski® crystals and Fireline® or Nanofil™.
There may be a possibility that it will not be possible to reproduce this project with other brands of beads and crystals due to the inconsistencies
between manufacturers and even within the same manufacturer themselves.
