These are the last five of a series of twenty-five beads that I did for a woman in Sequim, WA. They are done with czech
charlotte-cut 11's in two colors, czech 11 mattes, and czech charlotte-cut 13's. I used Nymo "B" thread and a size 12 "sharps"
needle. By the time I completed all twenty-five beads, I had gotten pretty good at sculpted round peyote stitch! Boy those
13's were something else! They are so tiny that a friend watching me work remarked that it looked to him like I was beading
with pepper!
for a future project, I would like to do some beads with patterns, I think that would a great next step in mastering
the art of "beading around an object.
Emily Hackbarth did a great tutorial on beaded beads when she was the Beadwork guide at About.com's beadwork site.
