Hi all

Just finished this and thought i’d share it with you all.  Its peyote stitch and the first thing i’ve made using it, I think I’m happy with the results!!!!  I’ve attached it to a black head band and think it actually does make a really pretty alternative headdress.  What do you think??

Thank you all guys, once I got going on the stitch it did flow quickly but it can be all fingers and thumbs!

I have made a couple of those (they are on my blog), but they weren’t as well made as yours! I think the colours look fab together.

Yes it was a difficult, it was great when i attached it to the head band but its gone all floppy now so I guess i need to work on the tension a bit more or alternatively feed some wire thru!

Just checked yours out on your blog, i think it looks great and would make a fab brooch
