Peyote stitch is a basic and incredibly versatile seed bead weaving technique. Beading magazines have many projects that utilize peyote stitch. This workshop will share flat and tubular peyote, even count, using Toho seed beads. Learn when to use each stitch and walk away with samples of each.
This class is a prerequisite for many Beadology Iowa classes, including Fancy Barbell Beaded Toggle on Jan. 18 & Peyote Slide on Twisted Herringbone on Feb. 21.
Learn how to use flexwire and crimp beads by making an eyeglass holder. The design considerations for how this is different than the strategy for a necklace will be discussed. Create your piece with seed beads and Czech pressed glass pieces. You’ll be able to make bracelets and necklaces with your new skill.
Join Karen in the Bead Lab on Facebook Live for a tutorial on making beaded fringe. Fringe needs a sweet spot with tension—too tight and your fringe doesn’t hang well; too loose and you have thread showing. Learn to make fringe just right in this Beadology Iowa tutorial.
Take sterling wire, Swarovski crystals, and a hammered silver ring to make a pair of earrings. Learn wire wrapping techniques to create this contemporary style of earring. Fast and fun.
