Create your own gorgeous beaded jewellery. In this workshop, you will learn the widely used off-loom bead weaving stitch known as Brick Stitch and be guided step by step in using it to create a pendant necklace or a pair of earrings. If time allows, you will also have the chance to add a tasselled fringe. You will be learning from a jeweller with over 15 years of experience who uses this technique widely in her own designs.

What will I make?

You will make a beaded kite shape. You will have the opportunity to turn this into a pendant or create a pair of earrings, even adding a tasselled fringe if time allows. The technique you learn is a widely used stitch that you can then master and use to create your own beaded jewellery.

What will happen on the day?

You will be welcomed in and introduced to your fellow beaders. As you wait for everyone to arrive, you will be able to peruse a range of stunning beaded pieces to gain inspiration for your work. Once everyone has arrived, you will be provided with a vibrant selection of beads, needles, and a pattern to follow. The instructor will then demonstrate the technique and guide you step by step to create your own piece. You will initially make a beaded kite shape that you can turn into either a pendant or a pair of earrings. If time allows, you can even add a tasselled fringe to your piece.
