Download or read book Spirit of the West written by Sheila Root and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirit of the West is a pattern book of images to create in Peyote Stitch or Brick Stitch. There are nine patterns including a gray wolf, a horse at sunset, a coyote, the sunset over the mountains, a brown bear, a bald eagle, a horse kachina, a bobcat, and a squirrel. Each pattern is presented with both a lettered chart of the image and a word chart. The lettered chart is easier to read than a chart with symbols and can be used as a guide for Brick Stitch. The word chart lays out the bead pattern one row at a time for Peyote Stitch, which is much easier than following the chart. An introductory chapter also includes instructions in peyote stitch, selecting beads, colors, and threads, assembling an amulet bag, and adding fringe and a strap. The final page of the book also lists some suggestions on what to do with your beadwork if you do not want to make an amulet bag. This book is the first in a series of pattern books for Peyote and Brick Stitch. Watch for more books coming soon.
