What Are Tila Beads?

If you have never come across Tila beads before, they are a type of shaped seed bead. As you might guess, they look like a tile. This brand is made by the Miyuki company, so don’t confuse these with Tile beads! The Tila beads are very shallow and each bead has two holes through it. As a result, these beads can be tessellated and joined in really interesting designs. They measure about 5mm along each side and they combine well with other seed beads. I am giving you some patterns here to get you started, but you could just buy the beads and make up your own designs.

Please remember to check back here regularly as I will be adding new designs. If you would like more information about the beads and techniques, then visit www.myworldofbeads.com. You will be able to read blogs about everything you need to know. Finally, if you have any questions about any products, please just drop me an email. I’m always happy to help!
