Happy holidays; happy Hanukkah, Solstice, Christmas, and New Year! Wishing everyone peace, joy, and lots of time for hand stitching with beads, threads, and fabrics that enrich and inspire your life.
The catalog for the 2013 Bead & Button Show is now available. Terrific beaders and teachers and beads and beadwork from all over the world converging on downtown Milwaukee, WI--oh my! I'll be teaching at this amazing event for the first time next summer and am really looking forward to it. I've got three classes offered on May 31st and June 1st. Then I head off to Columbus, OH to teach at the (also amazing : ) Quilt Surface Design Symposium. It should be a great month! Check out both www.beadandbuttonshow.com and www.qsds.com if you're looking for bead and thread embroidery inspiration and instruction next June.
