After a few requests I have launched my Adorned Carrier Bead project as a separate pattern (it was previously just part of my Adorned Peyote Stitch pattern set) and you can find it here.
If you love beading with Carrier Beads, and want to take it up a notch with new sparkling & textured additions, then this pattern is perfect for you!

But, if you've never done any before, and want to dive in then the 15 pages explain 4 different variations as well as how to turn them into finished Carrier Beads and also a finished bracelet.
This pattern is just £5 and is available here.
Don't forget you can get 20% off if you use the 'Pattern Discount Code' which you can find below.

There are so many things to see on the internet, or in the beading world, but here are some which have caught my eye recently:
This last item is a personal favourite of mine as I love this series of films and will definitely be rewatching them all now they're online:
Diana Friedberg has made a series of 5 'World on a string' films all about beads and their history and use.
She has kindly made them all available to watch online and you can find them here:

A lot of my planned classes have been cancelled or postponed, but I have added in some virtual classes via Creative Castle in California (but available to anyone wherever you are).
These classes will be run via 'Zoom' and you'll be sent the instructions in advance and then on the day be able to see me and the other students and still have some live beading fun!
The classes will run from 9am-2pm California time (5pm-10pm UK time) so you can still join in wherever you are in the World (needing to sleep permitting!).
You can see more information about all classes on my website here by date and here by venue (look under 'virtual classes' for these new ones) and also you can book via Creative Castle here
