Introduction I love all aspects of beading but am particularly interested in bead embroidery and needle felting at the moment. My needle felting is only at the beginner stage but I am fascinated by what emerges from a fist full of wool I have made several beaded dolls and intend to try more flat embroidered pieces in the future.
Interests Beading, embroidery, crochet, needle felting. A member of Embroiders Guild Victoria, Bendigo Branch, Bead Society of Victoria, Beaded Art Dolls Yahoo group, Bead Dreamz Yahoo group, The Needle Felters workshop. I try to take advantage of any classes offered by the 'Guild' during the year and more recently, online classes in needlefelting.
