Peyote - Finally

I definitely have to give a shout out to all of you that weave off loom.
Boy has my patience ever been tasked this week learning peyote of all
things. Today was the day it clicked. I've been at it for a few hours and
I'm liking the outcome. I'm doing a small bracelet, about 1 1/2" wide. I
couldn't do it in just once color, so it's more like a rainbow of colors.

Now that I've been at it for a little while I can definitely appreciate the
fact that the loom seems so much easier to me. I can draw out my designs
without really thinking about anything else.

This is a big night for me. I finally conquered the peyote and I'm going to
dance around the house in a sing song manner while Trinkett gives me that
"what are you doing now" look.

s

That's great. Peyote was the one that I learned and didn't know it. I just
learned brick stitch and now want to learn the others.

Congrats!!!

I can't even start thinking about what is next. I really love my loom...if
I could only find it. I'm thinking about asking my FIL to make me a really
nice one that's big enough that I can do some larger designs. The one I
have now is adequate, but you know the old adage of bigger is better.

I have a loom that my sil made me. I tried it before I was into beading and
it didn't work. Well, now I know better. But I haven't tried it yet.
That's coming up next after I finish school.

You will probably love it. I know that I love my loom almost as much as my
torch. I love making my own designs and then seeing them come alive on the
loom. It's so relaxing too.

Starlia,

last necklace on the right of the site.

The one thing about free form peyote is you can't make a mistake doing it.
Whatever you come up with is part of the design. I love incorporating a
focal piece with free form peyote.

Rock on! Offloom weaving is fantastic and so absorbing. And gratifying.
