I am taking 2 classes in parallel at the QU at the moment. The second class is called “To Bead or Not to Bead” and as you can guess it is about bead embroidery. I have done my first exercises and here are the results.

Scattered seed beads

Beaded bars

Beaded pathway
Not perfect, but what did you expect!
Nice work for your first attempt! I especially love the ‘Beaded Pathway’. What will you try next?
The next things in the class are couching stitch, fringes and using sequins.
Took a look at your work – lovely flamingos.
I want to use beading to embellish my quilts so the beading won’t be as dense as you are doing.
