Thank you ery much Jill, I think I FINALLY might have figured it out!! Ive been told how to do this many times, but when you explain it, it seems to sink right in! What a great teacher you are. Thank you again and keep up the beautiful work!!! You are my beading hero!!
Jill you are a wealth if knowledge. I still revisit many of your videos a d discover new old ones that are just as useful today. Thank you for the clear details and options. Just ordered from the garage sale last week!! You all did great!
Well, after beading for 10 years, owning my own bead store and teaching I finally learned the odd count peyote stitch thanks to your video. Only took me three times watching it; feel so silly that I just couldn't do it for all these years and I love peyote. Very easy to follow you and appreciate you so much. Thanks Jill
Jill, I am absolutely amazed at your teaching abilities. You make doing odd count peyote so plain and clear. I have been doing peyote for about 3 years and I learned something new from you in this video. Yes I did struggle with those turns, sometimes going in continual circles, lol. Thank you a million times over for your generosity of sharing and teaching. You are a true jewel.
I had given up on making the clasp for my bracelet as it was done in odd count peyote and I couldn't for the life of me follow the instructions. Perchance I came across your tutorial and within about a minute of starting to watch it, I just knew what I had been doing wrong and was able to remove the wire clasp I'd made and make the proper peyote clasp. Thank you so much. I must watch the rest of the tutorial now and find out what else I can learn.
You are fabulous! I just commented on your 2 needle peyote video and hinted in my comment that I needed flat count turn around and here it is!!!!! Many thank yous your biggest fan(although there must be thousands of them) Terry
My first attempt at odd count peyote using the first two ways was a big fail. I was brand new at bead weaving and I just wasn’t ready. So I tried your third suggestion of brick stitching on the final row and Voila! Odd Count Peyote! Today I have more bead weaving under my belt and felt ready to try the whole turn thing. Now that I have better bead handling skills following the turn instructions were easy. Thank you for your clear explanation.
Thank you Jill for your talents and your wisdom. I also learned one more way to do the odd count peyote turn and it is the ladder stitch. Going thru the last two beads and laddering the odd Bead to the last Bead and going back up into it and wah-la...ready to go again. I too was hesitant about odd count peyote but this really helped a lot. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you! I was able to grasp this after messing up several times. There isn't a single count peyote project that I CAN'T tackle thanks to your instructions!
Jill I am so excited. I watched your tutorial today and have been doing odd count peyote. I have avoided this stitch for years but you make it so easy. Thank you so much.
I just found your video and wanted to thank you for the lesson and I also wanted to comment on how well you present the class. I also found your pleasant presentation so wonderful to listen to. Again, thank you for sharing and I did subscribe.
Thank you! I was almost in tears with a pattern that is in odd count.. Always just done even count and really want to do this pattern! Your a lifesaver!! Thank you again!
you are awesome at keep every thing easy to keep up with for beginners. i have watched so many peyote videos and read the book.i could not keep with with them or understand what they were talking about. thank you. you have changed my mind about peyote.
Thanks Jill, I have learned even and odd stitch peyote from you. You are right when you said it can bee intimadating for the odd stitch count. This made it a lot clearer. I hope all is well with you and yours in this callenging time. Thank you.from not so sunny Scotland. xx
this is such an excellent video. I bought one of your patterns and it shows the thread turn. but I love the traditional turn! thank you so much for showing it so easily.
Jill, you just SAVED my niece’s Christmas present! I was doing an odd-count pattern and thought I was counting wrong when I kept ending up with with a “spare” bead. This was super-easy to learn.
Thanks Jill. Excellent teacher. I've been avoiding learning this however I love it! Now I'll tackle those odd counts. Yes im not a fan of the bulky thread so brick stitch perfect.
Very well described and displayed. I've done quite a few peyote stitch pieces, both odd and even count. This tutorial is very helpful. Thank you. Wopila!
Thanks to you I can do odd count peyote like a whiz! I still have to refer to your video for the first row, but I'm sure that will become easy after I do it a few more times. I'm so happy I was able to learn it (thanks to your wonderful videos) since there are so many patterns using odd count peyote.
awesome! i looked at a lot of videos on how to stick the crazy last bead on and yours is the best! i love that you showed the "correct" way along with 2 alternative methods so i am able to judge which method i think looks best for me. just FYI: i prefer the "correct way"
Hello! I just wanted to say thinks for reducing the "drama" around odd count peyote. I use the first method now, it works like a charm and is easy to remember. Clear instructions, easy to follow. I'm a happy beader with another stitch on my repertoire :-) Thanks!
Thanks for showing me how to do this. I have watched many tutorials on how to do it, but they used the same color and I could not tell which beads they were going threw on the odd side. I am new to this and have taught myself how to use the jewelry loom, but loved the other designs and want to learn those as well. You have a new follower.
Thank you, Jill. I was frustrated trying to do a narrow strap for an amulet bag and this video really helped! Too bad I didn't think to look for it before all the frustration, but now I'm set.
Thank you so much Jill for this wonderfully clear tutorial. Now I understand, and will be able to make a bunch of projects that I'd been wary of in the past, due to not being sure of the 'odd count turn'. :)
Well for me the first version is the best way to make this turn & really i found that turn so easy to do! but it's interesting to see the other way too even if it's not that kind of turn i will use TX. Jill! great tut video!
Ah ha! Thanks SO much for this tutorial. The first method seems simple enough, so I won't bother with the other 2 methods. Gonna rip apart the even count striped bracelet I just made and remake it as an odd-count. I want the same color bead on both edges. Plus, I don't like the color combo I used or how I attached my box clasp, so now I have a great excuse to disassemble it and start over. Thanks again!
Jill, I love your tutorials so much. They are very professional and to the point. So many other teachers are not prepared and start ripping open the bags of beads on screen. You have everything laid out and you don't waste time with showing us how to do the trivial things, like separating beads!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much for an easy and clear tutorial! I was so confused when my even count stitch pattern turned itself into an odd count stitch and I was going along thinking this isn't right.. I just hadn't learned odd count yet!
Jill, there is another way, one I think is the easiest of all. When you get to the end of that odd row, you go through the next diagonal bead to the upper left, then pick up your new bead and go back through that same bead that you are coming out of. The two beads will sit right next to each other. Then you just go back through the bead you just added. You are sort of making one a two-bead brick stitch. Try it!
