The first five steps of our Master Craftsman: Beading program requires a mastery of the knowledge of five different techniques and the completion of a piece in that technique: Square Stitch and/or Loom Weaving, Herringbone Stitch, Peyote Stitch, Bead Embroidery, and Right Angle Weave. Step 6 combines three of those techniques in an original piece. All Steps are judged on following directions closely, good documentation, material choices for the design, good design and color choices for the technique, and a well-executed piece.
