Memories of Kew

Monday, 18 November 2024 - Sunday, 24 November 2024

Garden Days

'Memories of Kew' is a joint master class with Stephanie Burnham and Jean's component (the vessel without the flower on the Lid) is called 'Garden Days.

Combining advanced geometric & floral beadwork, and throwing in shaping, structure & texture, this striking beaded vessel also comes with matching jewellery designed by Stephanie.

We united our two projects ('Garden Days' and 'Water Lilies at Kew') to create a set of beadwork evoking the many lovely days we have spent together at Kew gardens.

The series is formed of a beaded vessel created using unique techniques (all of which will be covered in the class and accompanying videos) topped with a striking beaded water lily which has coordinating jewellery which can be stored in the vessel.

A full requirements list for the project (which uses Peyote Stitch ) will be sent when booked:

  • Size 11 Cylinder beads (110g+)
  • Beading thread & needles
