I've seen it called both "Peyote" or "Gourd" stitch and I think most folks don't realize the significance of what word they use. I've been beading almost 20 years now. The elders I learned from said the word "Peyote" should only be used when the item being decorated is for ceremonial or spiritual purposes. Everyday items such as salt/pepper shakers are described as "Gourd" stitch. Anyway, just passing along what I was taught.
The coffee shaker, I love it!!! I work at a skilled nursing facility and one of our residents is Navajo and an amazing beader. She is still at it even with arthritis and eyesight degradation. Amazing woman. I’m planning on purchasing earrings from her. She even does these super cute Seahawks earrings!
Awesome Cynthia! Fantastic.
Aho, lol me and my brother had to make sure if they were the same thing or not, good stuff, subbed
Loved this information.
Great Video. Thank you!
I was taught that it’s peyote stitch when it’s on a Sacred or ceremonial item and gourd stitch for any other items.
Beautiful
I am Lakota and it has always been the peyote stitch.
Interesting. Thx
I am Cherokee and Paiute. All my life I have heard it called both way's. There is no right or wrong way to call it. I am 67 and live in Eastern Washington State. Even though you could say I live in a larger city, we surprisingly have only one store for beading. At a certain big chain store the other day I was SHOCKED at the Delicas prices! You get an itty bitty vial for close to $6.00! Even horribly made seed beads are expencive. I haven't the money to purchace large quantities. So my question is, where are the good honest companies to order from. I do have a favorite group called The Creative Native. They are now Powwow exclusive. Their Delica inventory is somewhat small. But great quality and prices. I am a recent victim of a house fire. I lost everything including my dog. So I have had to relearn how to do almost anything I used to do easily. Needless to say money is tight but I love beading. Thank you for a great video. I hope you do many more as you have a way of teaching that is easy to follow. A'HO 💚
I know it's two years since you typed this comment, but have you found an affordable source for beads yet? I order my Delicas from Fire Mountain Gems and Beads. Most of their Delicas are around half the price you paid at your store. Plus, they are located in Grants Pass, OR, so shipping shouldn't take too long. I'm sorry you lost so much in that fire. I hope you have been able to recover. It would break my heart to lose what little I have left! All the best,
1:20 when you bead the canes.. so you bead directly into the canes or affix the piece to the cane?
From what ive been told true peyote stitch is called brick stitch that was the old beading style they used to use. But being fast and easy most people use 3 drop peyote or 2 drop peyote. I've been fortunate enough to learn brick stitch and 3 drop peyote
Brick stitch has the beads laying on their side with holes up, like bricks.
haa Ura ! 🦅
Do u have the letterings in beading??????
Gourd stitch.
I refer to 2 drop as peyote & 3 drop as gourd. 🤷
