1. Good Luck! I have some beads, and a mag and some supplies.

But I've been sewing so much that I haven't gotten to it yet.

Not much time for it now. What kind are you doing?

Have fun.

6. Only once ... my wedding gown and cap. It's more satisfying than

you'd think ... pretty, too.

7. That's sick

[suninvited]

8. I have done a little.

I bought a book and taught myself several things, made a couple of anklets. It was a lot of fun !

What kind of beading are you going to be learning?

9. Try asking in the crafts group.

I think there are a couple beaders there.

10. I did for a bit

I did appliqué style hippie stuff, i.e. yin/yang symbols, peace signs, etc. But as I got more proficient and do more projects, it really began to take a toll on my neck. Could be just me, of course, but watch out for that.

:hi:

11. You better watch out.

It's highly addictive. First you start with a couple of pretty ones. Before you know it, you've got a crafter's case full. Then the next step is making your own lampwork beads with a blow torch & kiln.
