Pen decorated with seed beads in peyote stitch

Today we will learn one more beading technique: a tubular peyote stitch. It is a kind of peyote stitch technique that was already used in our tutorials. Using this beading technique we will decorate a pen with seed bead.
We will need:
- a pen to be decorated; I used an ordinary gel pen with an outer diameter of 9 mm,
- Czech seed beads #10; I used seed beads of red and blue colors,
- nylon thread and a needle for beading.
