Stitches: Flat Odd-Count Peyote Turns

[@skylarming8307]

You really are such a great teacher, most videos BORE me but you inspire me to go further than I could’ve ever imagined

[@maryg3143]

You're the best teacher, Jill. Thank you.

[@skylarming8307]

ABSOLUTELY!!!

[@whoseeswho]

This is one of the best tips I have ever received for peyote stitch. Thank you so much Jill. You are the best!

[@natashacorpuz1660]

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!

[@sharonrenihan9918]

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

[@lynmurphy4469]

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.

[@rhondagarran]

The BEST explanations!!! Thank you!!

[@carmenmilano9688]

I've avoided the odd count for years. A thousand thank you's, Jill. You are a great teacher. Now I have a whole new avenue opened to me!!!

[@christibush9652]

I've just started on my first odd count payote stitch carrier bead bracelet and this helped me out so much. Thank you!!

[@tbeadg]

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

[@tracyvision]

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.

[@brendafreeman8714]

[@lindysmith378]

Thanks Jill for such a clear and concise explanation for this odd count peyote turn.

[@fishnlady]

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.

[@nicolebergen983]

Jill, your videos are great, you are funny and also to the point. I taught my 9 yr old son the square stitch with your video. So fun!

[@doloresgonzalez6988]

[@QueenLaamiri]

[@carolcrottie7408]

Thank you Jill! You are the best "Explainer" in the whole wide world!

[@summer5851]

A million thanks Jill I have learned so much from you! I never thought I could do peyote stitch. I actually made a beautiful bracelet for my mom.

[@eileenmolloy1471]

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

[@AgdaFingers]

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!

[@janejohnson7702]

You are amazing! Thank you. I am no longer "confused" on odd count turns and I've watched many others with great frustration.

[@angelkat4713]

Jill thank you so much for all of your great videos. You really have inspired me to start beading again. I'ts great to have you on you tube.

[@jamywilliams1196]

Finally! Someone explained it in a way I can understand. TY!

[@kathyburt8593]

Thank you I finally figured it out thanks to your teaching!

[@vickijblackketter1876]

Brilliant work. Thanks for showing all the funky turn options!

[@kathleensmith377]

Love it Jill! Adding by brick stitch is a stroke of genius!!

[@kathrynphillips9787]

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.

[@marlyshustad7094]

Thanks Jill. Your video makes odd count peyote turn so clear & easy.❤️😊❤️

[@verelllarks3722]

I just love you!! When I watch your videos I smile the entire time.

[@keciawinters1285]

Thank you Jill you're awesome.

[@jenny9249]

You’re tutorial was the best I have seen, thank you so much😀

[@vjbourgerois]

Your hair really looks good up. Thank you for teaching this spirial stitch. I learned a lot

[@Segeberg90]

Woah - thank you! I've watched SO many videos to try and learn this. Your video made it perfectly simple. 🙏

[@shaunpatterson24]

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!

[@summer5851]

Thanks so much for such clear and easy to follow videos

[@maureenc1641]

Excellent and helpful video!

[@susanchamblee2549]

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!!!

[@micuba]

Thanks Jill, I’m learning a lot with you. Thanks for sharing all your knowledges with us. Muchas gracias.

[@deecee901]

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.

[@cynthiaquill8790]

Omg thank you!! I've been trying to learn how to bead for awhile now and your videos are the best!

[@suem.3651]

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.

[@evasjoberg9464]

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!

[@sandiswitzer201]

Thanks Jill. I had forgotten how to do the odd count peyote.

[@jenny08le]

You’re a genius. Thank you!

[@loripostma982]

Thank you. Very clear and easy to understand. Your videos are always great.

[@lilianbastos8264]

Hi Jill just love your videos, your way of talking and teaching! Think I'll try stiching peyote now!

[@LeoraFay]

Cool! I've been doing the second option (making the X and weaving back in but maybe I'll try the brick stitch one next time. Thanks Jill!

[@jeretotman1509]

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.

[@Mellie726]

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.

[@leah0181]

I love all your tutorials. Thanks

[@jjbuffy2]

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"

[@joanvanloozenoord188]

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.

[@Craftsycreations]

Thanks Jill, been trying to get this stitch for a long time now.

[@gbethley]

Thank you...very helpful for us Newbie beaders!

[@rtadvocate1010]

I think that after this great video, I am going to be able to do this technique

[@SandyStark21]

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.

[@jonialm2664]

Thank you so much! It really makes sense when you show how to do it - I'm inspired to try odd count peyote!

[@mistyrose1203]

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.

[@Topitoffable]

Great tutorial! Thank you!

[@thesararose]

Thank you Jill! You're the best!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@sabineubelhor9047]

Great tutorial, thank you so much for it!

[@jspinks1620]

Jill you are fabulous ,this is an excellent tutorial love you! thanks for all your tutorials !

[@carolesimmons961]

Thanks so much - that was very helpful, as all your videos are!

[@MichellesHandmadeCreations]

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!

[@beads2yarn]

Fantastic. So easy to follow. Thank you for sharing

[@lindaw505]

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'. :)

[@soucky1]

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!

[@Groovy_gamer-qv6jt]

Thanks Jill. I think I'll try it. Been afraid to do odd count

[@lai4633]

You are the best!

[@adelehilinski9998]

You made it so easy to do the odd count peyote, thanks

[@larajaniszewski]

thanks for this! Another channel has a pattern I love but its even count which makes it not symmetric; now I can fix it!

[@annrust7417]

Thank you for taking the mystery out of odd count peyote.

[@isabelleblain6263]

THANK YOU Jill! Now I am wondering why I was afraid of odd-count peyote stitch all those years!!!

[@dilizabethguzman5044]

Wow!! wonderful thank you!!

[@partyparlour3962]

hilarious! indeed great teacher, lol about the problem child bit

[@virgovillage3926]

I think I got the hang of it now...great demonstration

[@debbiethomas3517]

I think I finally got it! Seems the traditional method works for me.

[@sabrinaohearn2632]

Thanks for all the tips. There is a 4th way to do the odd count 😊

[@rosemariehitsman1183]

thanks for sharing this with me it makes it easier for me to get it

[@lindahanssen2472]

Great video...looking forward to lots more :-)

[@susancolvin2413]

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.

[@galeem713]

I used your first method for single beads but use a modified square stitch to do my turn in 3 drop. When I get to the edge, I don’t pick up beads, go into the beads below, come out, pick up my beads, and square stitch them.

[@jeweliedee4299]

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!

[@sidonyamanchego8433]

Jill--very helpful. Might try the brick-stitch edging. Hadn't seen that as an option before. Just trying to do a simple matchbox cover and have several sets of instructions in front of me but still having trouble. Thanks for the video. Will also practice with larger beads until I get the hang of it.

[@suneetagupta8956]

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!

[@1lisalopez]

Thank you 👍🏼

[@diatomdeli]

you are a wonderful teacher! thanks so much!

[@shannonduncan6894]
