Peyote Stitch Projects

Posted by JasmineWolfdiVine on 2/11/2006
I started beading when I was 15 yrs old and have moved through many styles and mediums. I started doing Peyote Stitch around 1998, and then discovered Miyuki Delicas around 2000. I was hooked! The sheer workability of the beads inspired creation after creation and only a few pieces were able to be photo-ed before going off to various homes. Some pieces are still available.

The Rasta Jar

The Rasta Jar

The curves of this jar presented a challenge in the creation of this piece. All boundaries had to be crossed just to make this work. I basically had to build long tabs to create each window and then reconnect them all at the perfect moment at the bottom of the jar. Most of the tabs were too short so as I connected each tab I also had to lengthen each piece by at least 3 rows. The process worked and this is the final product...

Peyote Stitch Lamps

Peyote Stitch Lamps

This amazing lamp is one of my masterpiece projects. All parts were done by me; the shade is entirely Japanese delicas, plus a few bits of shell and coral on the fringe; the shell base I hand selected at a shop in Ocean Beach, CA-drilled the holes and flattened the bottom so it does not rock; and all the hardware and wiring I did myself. (easier than you'd think) It took 100 hours to complete and there was no pattern or design drawn...it's all freestyle...one-bead-at-a-time peyote stitching. Truly a masterpiece! (if I do say so myself...=D) This lamp was entered in the 2003 Oregon State Fair and won three ribbons...First Place, Judge's Choice, and a Special Award...not too shabby.
