Peyote Leaves

 

A lot of beadwork necklaces, earrings, brooshes in Moscow are made using peyote "leave" basic 
element. Every beadwork classes teach it here, almost every book has a description. Endless variations 
in colors, material give completely different look to a well-known pattern. 
It is better for you to be familiar with peyote stitch. If you are not - learn it first using any good book 
on subject otherwise these instructions might disappoint you!
