WildFire Beading Thread

And here's is the other love of my beading thread life - WildFire.  If you saw my last post on FireLine, pretty much ditto for WildFire.  It's another nylon thread that's very strong and doesn't self-puncture, so it doesn't get tangly or impossible to pull out your mishaps.  But whereas FireLine is the perfect fluid, drapey beading thread, WildFire is fantastic for sturdy, structured pieces with some body to them.  It's a little bigger, despite having the same advertised diameter, but I use it whenever it will fit when I'm aiming for a structured piece of bead weaving.  One of my newer favorite obsessions is dimensional, shaped weaving.  I get a ridiculous kick out of creating 3D shapes with seed beads.  I love how strong the WildFire makes these pieces.  I don't bead without these threads!
