$10.00
This full-color, step-by-step tutorial shows you every detail in creating this life-like, three-dimensional beaded flower plus a curly stem. You'll need size 15o, 11o, and 8o Japanese seed beads, size 11o cylinder beads, size 14o or 15o Czech seed beads, an SS39 crystal chaton, 6mm and 4mm crystal bicones, and a button bead, plus needles and thread of your choice.
Learn to create sculpted, life-like dimensional flower petals using nothing more than flat peyote stitch, then create a tiny bezel and embellish it to add stamens and pistils. The curly stem is made with the same technique as the petals, and teaches you how to zip a curved piece of peyote stitch seamlessly.
Skill Level: Intermediate
Techniques: Flat peyote stitch, tubular peyote stitch
Time to Completion: 5-8 hours depending on stitching speed
