Get the most from your seed bead class!

All levels of seed bead classes use a needle and thread to stitch together small beads. Knowing the stitch basics is a prerequisite for all intermediate and advanced classes. Beginners are encouraged to review and practice stitches before class; use the basics section of stitches in any issue of Beadwork as a guide.
Be prepared with supplies to make your class experience a total success: most classes require you to bring beading needles, beading thread, scissors, a beading mat, and especially a task light with a long extension cord.
