STITCH OF THE MONTH
Learn a new bracelet stitch each month!
Instructor: Kathleen Lynam

Meets one Sat morning each month, usually the first Saturday.

The Stitch of the Month curriculum is designed to teach 12 major
bead-weaving stitches/techniques in a comparative context. This is
perhaps one of the best ways to learn bead weaving. You get a
clearer understanding of what each stitch is, how to manage and
control it, and what your project and design options are, when you
learn them comparatively, rather than in isolation from each other.

Each class is devoted to explaining a little of the history of the
stitch and the how-to basics of doing the stitch. Students then
practice with variations on the stitch, such as
increasing/decreasing, flat vs. tubular vs. circular, and the like.

Students create a bracelet each month.

Students may join the class at any point in the 12-month cycle. Each class is
really in-and-of-itself. You may do all of the classes, or only some of them,
as you desire. If you miss a class, it will be repeated in the next cycle.

DISCUSSION NOTES POSTED ON THESE WEBSITE LOCATIONS:
http://blog.landofodds.com Go to CLASS NOTES, then BEAD STUDY LINK

TOPIC: Dimensional Shapes in Beadwork
We will be using Diane Fitzgerald's new book on dimensional shapes as a study
guide. The book is entitled "Shaped Beadwork: Dimensional Jewelry with Peyote
Stitch". We have copies for sale in the shop.

We will probably stick with this topic for the next 12 months.

We will organize the studies into 5 units:
(1) Making basic polygons
(2) Making donut polygons
(3) 3-Dimensional Shapes
(4) "Shape" as a design element
"Dimensionality" as a design element
(5) Other Geometrics from other artists, like Julia Pretl, Jean Powers, Judith
Walker, Laura McCabe


There is no teaching charge for this class; however, there may be a small charge
for materials.

You may also register for the BeadStudy group under Yahoo where summaries of the
discussions will be sent to group members, and you may continue the discussions
on line. Summaries of all discussions and all handouts are archived here for
you, as well.
