Description
Join us in exploring the world of beaded beads! There are a multitude of ways to create and design beaded beads. Starting with a simple base bead, students will add layers to develop different textures. The goal is to cover one new bead a day. Multiple stitches will be used and experimentation is encouraged. A great way to use your stash!
Francie Broadie has been beading and teaching beadwork in the Midwest since 2000, including the Bead and Button Show in Milwaukee and Bead Fest in Philadelphia. She is well-versed in bead weaving and glass fusing, having studied with multiple teachers since 1995. She holds a bachelor’s degree from Kenyon College and a Master of Arts degree from the University of Indianapolis. Seed beads are Francie’s favorite, but she will bead anything. Her goal in life is to cram as much ‘beady info’ into her brain as possible. In her spare time Francie stitches, knits, sews, paints and dabbles in photography.
