Keep the iron moving in circles β€” never park it in one spot. Cover with parchment paper, iron one side, flip carefully, iron the other.

Fuzzy look? Iron slightly less on the pegboard side, then texture with a towel while still warm.

Design Notes: 128Γ—128 Pixel Composition

The 128Γ—128 grid (16,384 beads, 9 colors) is a large-format advanced design. At this scale, the pattern creates a richly detailed pixel-art piece. Use connected pegboards (4+ boards in a 2Γ—2 grid for 128Γ—128), iron in sections, and allow extended cooling time under weight. The 9-color palette provides depth and dimension. Display in a shadow box frame for a gallery-quality finish.

Ironing Tips

  • πŸ’‘Medium heat only β€” too hot and the beads over-melt and lose shape; too cool and they won't fuse.
  • πŸ’‘Keep the iron moving in slow circles β€” staying in one spot melts that area flat.
  • πŸ’‘Iron both sides and press under a heavy book while cooling to keep it flat.
