Seed Beading StarterDescription: This two-hour class will get you started with one of the five basic off-loom seed bead stitches: Brick, Ndebele (herringbone), peyote stitch, right angle weave or square stitch.
Students will Learn: Students learn about the differences in seed beads, choices for needles and threads, and choose the stitch they want to learn during the class. Students will start with a basic flat stitch and learn variations as time permits. Instructor: Kim Humphrey Class Fee: $20 (Materials extra.) |
Peyote
PEYOTE – Creates a sturdy, brick-like pattern and has long been associated with Native American beadwork.
|
Brick Stitch
BRICK STITCH – Commonly found among African and Native American beadwork, this stitch creates a sturdy weave with many possible variations. |
Ndebele
NDEBELE – Also known as herringbone stitch because of the pattern the weave creates, this stitch gets its name from the Ndebele tribes of South Africa. This creates a very supple weave that drapes beautifully in bracelets or necklaces.
