How to make it
- Print the pattern at 100% scale and gather your beads — the counts above are exact.
- Place one color at a time, starting with the biggest count; it catches mistakes early.
- Iron with an adult: medium heat, 10–20 seconds per side, ironing paper between iron and beads.
- Cool flat under a heavy book for 10 minutes.
