The exact bead counts will depend upon whether you decide to use Delica beads or the rounder Czech seed beads. Both are size 11/0s, but the difference in shape means that you’ll be able to fit 16 base row beads (and therefore 16 full sized petals) if you use Delicas. If you chose to use Czech see beads, you’ll only be able to fit 14 around the circumference of the 8mm bead center.
