Delica ring

I tried working some flat peyote stitch with Delicas today. Wow. I see why people get so attached to them. Too bad they are three to five times as expensive as the humble Japanese seed beads I usually use. They are worth it, but damn. I only have these because an acquaintance was tidying up her stash a number of years ago and gave me a few grams of four colors, no doubt in the hopes of converting me. They've been sitting in my stash ever since, smirking at me. So today I threaded a #12 sharp with some black "O" size Nymo and gave them a try. I made myself a ring.
