Today I’m taking you on a little tour of our newest Hama fuse bead creations, and I’m also pulling a few of my favourite catalogue patterns back into the spotlight. Plenty of inspiration here, whether you’re crafting solo or with the kids!
On today’s menu: a little farmyard friend, a blooming garden, a starry night sky and a stylish accessory, before we circle back to four catalogue favourites. Plenty to keep your pegboard busy all week, rain or shine!
Today’s four new patterns
An adorable little farmyard friend
Off to the farm with our sweet little cow: a friendly white face and neatly mirrored patches make this a lovely first pattern to bead with kids, perfect as a fridge magnet or keychain.

Starry Crescent Moon

A stylish little accessory
And to dress up bags and hair, here’s our pink bow tie with its bold centre knot: a great little project for practising symmetry with the kids, with such a polished result.
All four of these new patterns stay within a single standard square pegboard, so there’s no need to hunt for anything special in your craft box before getting started. Just pick your colours, follow the chart row by row, and you’re set for a cosy afternoon of beading.

I hope this round-up has you itching to get your beads back out. One small but important reminder: keep an eye on symmetry wherever it matters, and let your pieces cool down flat before peeling them off the board, so they stay nice and straight instead of warping. Let me know in the comments which pattern you’re most tempted by, and see you soon for more makes!
