You are purchasing a flat ODD count peyote digital pattern....NOT THE ITEM IN THE PHOTO.
**Knowledge of flat odd count peyote is needed as no instructions for this stitch are within this pattern.
You will work FLAT, then zip up the piece to form the tube. My beaded covers fit most standard size lip balm tubes such as Burt’s Bees and Blistex. If you find your completed cover to be loose on your lip balm tube, simply add some double stick tape to the tube and replace your cover.
A Customer Request! I got a request from Melodie to design a lip balm cover for her using colorful SUNFLOWERS with a periwinkle blue background! These sunflowers jump off the background where I also accented with light teal and golden dots! What a beauty!
Work as a FLAT odd count peyote pattern and add the optional PICOT trim BEFORE you zip up the ends to form a tube.
I stitched the original using a size 12 beading needle, 4lb FireLine fishing line, size 11/0 Delica beads.
For the optional PICOT trim, I used size 15/0 round Miyuki seed beads in DURACOAT GALVANIZED GOLD, #15-4202.
I used 6 colors making 37 columns and 66 rows using a total of 1221 beads.
The cover as designed measures 2 3/4 inches around by a 1 7/8 inches tall, lying flat!
These sunflowers are so MODERN and THOROUGHLY addictive to stitch! I hope you enjoy these SWEET delights!
