A quiet Sunday, and this afternoon was the Bead Nuts meeting. We learned how to make a Peyote Curl. Below you can see the beginning, where it is just starting to curl, and above, it's curling well, and I added a stripe of a different color. This was only the second time I tried the peyote stitch, but it worked out well. And I feel very comfortable with peyote, in fact, I really enjoyed it.
You just keep on adding rows until the curl is the way you want it, so we'll see how much more I'll do. Then, you can nest a large bead inside, and make a pendant, or add it to another piece.
Here is the group during the meeting, with some folks beading away, and others relaxing!
