Pearl Knotting With A Crystal Flair

I love to bead, but especially I love to teach beading and to show the way colors work together. Originally from Eugene, Oregon, I have been in the SF Bay area since the early 1970's. Now, happily retired, I am spending as much time as possible beading, teaching, and figuring out new techniques to teach to other beaders. My home and car are littered with beads, beading materials, books, and magazines. Not surprisingly, most of my friends are into beads, and bead related activities. I have been beading for over 25 years in the SF Bay area and teaching for over 13 years. I have been published in Deb Moffitt-Hall's on-line ?Bead-Patterns the Magazine? and have also been featured in ?Beading with World Beads? by Lark Books. I love to teach beading ~ both the basics, as well as my own tutorials, but I also love to play with polymer clay and Kumihimo. The best part is when my students "get it" on a new technique. I love to spread the addiction. I currently work and teach at Beads and Pomegranate Seeds in Vallejo, Ca.
