Peyote Beading

I learned yet another technique in Kit 4 and it wasn't needlepoint- it was Peyote beading.  I think I watched at least 10 hours of You Tube videos and it's almost a shame that I probably won't use this knowledge in the future, because I am NOT going down the rabbit hole of beading!

Here's the photo progression

Laying out the beads and stringing the first 2 rows with a stop bead

Writing out the pattern in words- yes this was challenging, but critical

Then hours of work and constant re-watching of You Tube

ALL FINISHED AND CAN RETURN TO NEEDLEPOINT
