The Peyote Bezeled Cabochon Pendant/Pin
by Karen Thomas
This is an intermediate beginners class. I will teach the students how to do even count peyote around a cabochon that is glued to a foundation. The cabochon will then be bead embroidered and the finished project can be made into a pin or a pendant. A knowledge of flat peyote stitch is a help but not necessary. We will be working with small #11 beads so bring your glasses. Cost of the class is $35. 00 with a kit. The class will take about 3 hours. Please have students email me at Queenkst@aol.
