Improvisational Bead Embroidery with Robin Atkins

Two-day workshop. Students will learn and practice all of the basic techniques, getting a good start on a small beaded piece by the end of the workshop. From the beginning Robin has found that doing bead embroidery improvisationally is relaxing, meditative, healing, and fun. It is working from the heart rather than the head, which builds self-confidence and frees our creative powers (the joyful, bold, and playful spirit we all have) from the restraints and criticisms which so often hinder our artistic development. If you haven’t worked this way before, you’ll be pleased at how easy and exciting it is.
