A White cow face with a Light Grey edge, Black patches, Tan horns and a Blush muzzle and inner ears, on a pegboard grid.

Start with the Tan horns and Light Grey outer edge, then fill the White face and Black patches. Add the Blush inner ears and muzzle, followed by the Black eyes and nostrils. Follow each patch separately because the markings differ on the two sides.

  2. Prefer to tweak it? Open the maker, recreate or import the shape, and change colors, size or details — it recounts the beads live.
  3. Fuse with parchment and a warm iron per your bead brand’s instructions, and let it cool flat.
