It is really exciting to see this, since it sometimes feels like bead embroidery is a forgotten part of working with seed beads. I love bead embroidery, and although I have been doing it for years, I have never used a couching stitch. It is cool to see how someone else does things and I am looking forward to the rest of the series. Thank you so much for making this available!
You are so welcome! We're glad to hear you enjoyed it.
This is so great! Love you Mom!
Thanks Angie, Your help & support through out the years has been a huge part of my journey.....love you too!
You made this look very easy, great instructions.
Thank you, can’t wait for another video
glad you enjoyed it and more to come. Every Wednesday till July 1st.
What an awesome video! I've always been afraid of bead embroidery, but this has made me want to attempt it again. Love how it teaches you from the start. Jody makes me feel so at ease, her style is so engaging and her kindness shows through. Thank you so much for inviting this fabulous artist.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We absolutely love Jody and are so happy she's inspired you! Thanks for watching.
Love this so much, casual beadwork, no detailed instructions to follow. Just follow your heart!
i love that you show examples of how each should look after full stitching.
Excellent! Jody is a great teacher and inspires many beaders. Thank you Jody and Fire Mountain!

Wow...this seems to go so fast and love all the textures shown for future episodes to whet the appetite. Anxiously awaiting the additional videos in this series. Glad to see the 1st comment about making sure your first row is an even count of beads. THANK YOU Jody and FMG!

I live in South 🇦🇺 Linda V. I agree a great teaching video.
I'm a beginner and I am looking forward to this series I have loved bead embroidery and thought it to be a little daunting. Thank you for sharing, I am excited to get started 😊
Wonderful! You are so welcome and happy creating!
Very nice, thank you very much for sharing your wonderful videos, I enjoy your work
Wow amazing. Thanks for sharing this and showing me your talent on this.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful thank you.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Very nice and so clear. Thank you 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Great video on the basic stitching to achieve a beautiful peyote bezel. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Thanks so much Marcia, Couching is my way as you know. glad you joined in
She didn’t mention that you should have an even number of beads around the base row of seed beads (even count peyote). If you have an odd count, it will end up spiraling (no step-up place at end of row) or you will need to skip two beads somewhere along the way to decrease by one bead when doing the second row. That’s not optimal as it can cause your bezel to have an unsightly gap in that one row and throw off your bead alignment which makes it look sloppy. I made that mistake once when I was just learning and had to tear the whole thing out and start over. That is not fun to do!
Hi Anne, the cabs I used allowed me to do even count peyote, so I was able to step up. There are a few tricks if it is uneven and glad you know the trick.
Thank you for posting this. Something always goes a little off when I'm starting a new craft, now I know how to counter a potential something! Bless her though, this was a great introductory video for a beginner like me.
Love Love Love this video! Jody's style of teaching is so comfortable and easy to understand. Thank you Fire Mountain!
You are so welcome! We love Jody too!
Lunar your so sweet and I love you!
@@FireMountainGems I love you all too! thanks so much for being so kind and making me feel so special.
Very beautiful
😊
This is a GREAT video. So inspiring and easy to follow. There are no complicated patterns or techniques. Her just follow your heart attitude allows me to create something that is totally mine. The filming on this video is outstanding. It is very easy to see exactly what she is doing and follow along. A supply list of her basic materials would be appreciated.
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed it. We don't have a detailed materials list and we encourage you to use the technique learned here with the products listed in the description of this video. Happy creting Apral!
Apral, so happy that it spoke to you and was inspiring. You will love what is still to come. Fire Mountain did an excellent job with everything and they have quite the set-up. The staff was uncreditable and made me feel so comfortable and part of the team. The amount of work that goes into a project like this is huge and they are all experts.
Thank you for the easy to follow tutorial! Is it always an even amount of beads? What happens if it starts with an odd number of beads?
Unfortunately I can't get ride of the caption running on the screen obscuring the central picture. And this looks like (what I can see of it) an excellent tutorial. Yes, I checked my utube setting and my caption setting is turned to off.
Very well explained! Made it easier for us to understand… great video for beginners!
Can you share the exact link for the cabochon used in this project, please?
So glad you enjoyed this video. It's just part 1 of the series. Here's a link to the the playlist of this series - czcams.com/play/PLCCNqW5Elcgcl5-HQEvT9KNmcpuMzXmrR.html Also, here's a link to the black lip shell cabochon - www.firemountaingems.com/itemdetails/h201652cb Thanks for watching!
