New demos for John Bead in Tucson

Here I am in the John Bead booth at the Doubletree Hotel. People were really interested in what I was beading with the new Miyuki tila beads.

A second demo brought more people to learn about farfalle beads, little peanut shaped beads with center holes. Lots of shoppers knew me from my Doodlebeads DVD and my work on the TV show Beads, Baubles, and Jewels. They all said that my drawings helped them learn bead stitching better than any other way they tried!

More posts to come. Today I have one more demo and then I'm off the the Gem Mall.
