Default Which Size 8's to use?

Hi all,

I'm back from a week at Wm. Holland. (More on that later!) What have I
missed? Anyone else post a challange necklace for us to see?

I'm working on doing a class of beaded satin or velvet bags (about 3 x
4") with some kids, and I want to use size 8 beads. Do you think I should
use something like Tohos or just some cheap beads?

Anyone that's used a lot of size 8's, can you reccomend a source. I was
looking at the FMG catalog and they just don't have a lot of appealing
colors. I have a Shipwreck catalog, but the pics are so small, that it's
hard to like the colors when I can't see them.

Thanks!
