Bead It Like You Mean It part 2: Beyond The Basics Of Beading On Fabric
Course 🟣 28 Lessons
EXPAND YOUR CREATIVITY as Lyric Kinard takes you beyond the basics of bead embroidery. Build on what you learned in Bead It Like You Mean It pt. 1 and learn new dimensional beading techniques that jump right off the surface. Wrap cords or walk a line of seeds over a bugle bead bridge. Try out a beautiful Gourd stitch to attach a cabochon or go right over the edge as you add beaded borders to your cloth.
How This Course Works
This course is an online on-demand workshop. You will need an internet connection to stream each video.
Each lesson includes space for you to share your pictures and get feedback from your classmates. The more you contribute, the livelier the class will be.
Lyric will pop in to give feedback on each picture posted. This platform provides a safe space for a lively and sharing creative community to explore without judgment and competition.
Just like in a live classroom, you'll be able to see your fellow students' work and discuss how things are going. You'll get encouragement and instructions from Lyric on all the work you post.
