Jewels in Peyote Stitch is a collection of full color designs for beaded jewelry to be done in odd-count or even-count tubular peyote stitch. Delica beads are recommended for most of the pieces. Although a beginning peyote stitcher can accomplish the band bracelet designs, the level of difficulty of most of the designs is intermediate to advanced. Complete instructions including color diagrams for all the beadwork techniques necessary to do the projects are given in a separate section.
The book provides a variety of innovative and elegant designs including amulet bags, a medallion bracelet, and a three-dimensional flower. Most designs include a necklace, bracelet and earrings. The author often uses bead mixtures for an "antique" look, or to achieve an exact color or more interesting surface. Bracelet clasps are made from bead-covered beads for a perfect match.
