Friday July 19, 2024 9:00am – 11:30 am, Gethsemane Episcopal Church, with Carol E. Marlin
This workshop is an overview of the basics for sewing beads onto quilts and having them stay there. It is for those who want to add some bling, texture, and/or an additional design element to their quilts. Also for those who have tried to add beads and have not been pleased with the results for any number of reasons. It will provide you with an understanding of the materials involved and will give you a short time to work on a sample during the workshop.
$20 kit fee payable to Carol in class. Kit will include beading needles, thread samples, beads, a small bead pad and a small quilt sandwich to work on in class.

Carol’s biography:
I have lived in seven states, two of them twice, and Germany. I have a BS in Educations from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. My current home is in Indianapolis with my husband and ginger cat. I have had some sort of needle and thread in my hands since I can remember.
I am a process person, so the mechanics of producing the work are very important to me. The dying, stitching, knotting and cutting are the parts I love. The finished work is the reward. I strive to be the best crafts person I can be. My art gives me wonderful and irreplaceable friendships. It gives me joy. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. I hope others enjoy looking at my work, using it and wearing it as much as I enjoy making it.
