TAMBOUR BEADING

Needlework and beading have been a significant part of my life for the past 40 years. Learning tambour beading is a more recent path down which I have blindly followed. I first stumbled on the world of needlework and embroidery in 1973 because of the PBS program, Needleplay with Erica Wilson. Who knew that 30 years later I would be at the same Royal School of Needlwork completing the concentrated course in hand embroidery or twice be a guest on a PBS program ,Fit2Stitch!... It wasn't long after starting to stitch that I transitioned from full scale embroidery to working on 38 count silk mesh to upholster 1/12 scale chairs as well as create rugs and wall hangings for miniature rooms.
