Materials Used To make The  Project

Quick Project Steps

Gather your materials: Miyuki Delicas (11/0), seed beads (15/0), focal beads, beading needle, and thread.
Cut approximately 30 inches of beading thread and attach a stop bead in the middle.
Start by threading 15/0 seed beads to create the interior loop, ensuring you have an even number for the peyote stitch.
Begin the peyote stitch with 15/0 seed beads, adding one bead, skipping the next, and passing through the following bead.
After completing the first round with 15/0 beads, switch to 11/0 Delicas for the outer layer, continuing the peyote stitch.
Add the focal bead by sewing through it and securing it within the beaded frame.
Finish the frame by connecting the ends and adding a loop for hanging if desired.
Trim and secure the thread ends.
