Millinery- 9/3/12

Today we did beading. It is pretty simple to do and quite fun. All you need to do is get yourself a collection of beads that look good together and some matching felt and thread. Use the thread double. Tie a big fat knot at the end of the thread and sew about 4 beads on at a time. Every so often do a knot stitch so if the thread breaks not all the beads fly off at the same time. These can be made into a brooch with a brooch back or used on garments as well as on hats or headpieces.







Thanks go to all the E people who were in class today for letting me photograph their work.
