Beading Bee's?
ok, silly idea just came to me, but then maybe not so silly.
You've all heard about quilting bee's right? where a bunch of quilters get together and just hang out and quilt together, well, why not a beading bee? i know that if i get beading without anyone around, i start falling asleep (Beading relaxes me, what can i say. i think the fact that i have sleep apnea doesnt help either lol) but when my room mate and i bead together its just a lot of fun. also we swap beads if we need other colors from each other and generally help and encourage one another anyone else think this is a good idea??

Beading Bees are fun, but I usually have to do something repetitive.
Otherwise I get too distracted. I have a neighbor who arranged 2 hours of beading at the library, which I haven't been to for a while. And the place I took some classes has an "open studio" 2 days a week. I often do bead crochet in busy places. This allows me to soak up new ideas without messing up my project. Tina "C.

y.
You've all heard about quilting bee's right? where a bunch of quilters get together and just hang out and quilt together, well, why not a beading bee? basically - that's what happens every Wed night locally - all the beaders get together - bead, chat, eat the treat of the week.... LOL I guess that's a "beader's bee" - they just call it a bead group... specifically .. the Naughty Beaders group...

In article nk.net,
says... ok, silly idea just came to me, but then maybe not so silly. You've all heard about quilting bees right? where a bunch of quilters get together and just hang out and quilt together, well, why not a beading bee? You might try checking http://www.meetup.com and see if there's a beading meetup in your area. Seems like that would be a good venue for this sort of thing.

Back in the Dawn of Time when I was using AOL, a bunch of the east coast
beaders got together and had a Bead Bash. I went a couple times and it was a riot. We showed off, we traded, we wheeled and dealed and got totally silly. Great fun and I highly recommend it. -- KarenK Desert Dreamer Designs http://members.cox.net/desertdreameraz/ Ebay Sto http://www.stores.ebay.com/desertdreamerdesigns JustBeads: http://www.justbeads.com/search/ql.cfm?s=DesertDreamer |

I go to "beading bees" about once a month -- and as soon as we find a suitable
table for the house, I'm going to start having them here. It's been a plan for a long time (I've been searching for a table). when my room mate and i bead together its just a lot of fun. also we swap beads if we need other colors from each other and generally help and encourage one another anyone else think this is a good idea?? ~~ Sooz ------- ESBC Dr. Sooz's Bead Links http://airandearth.netfirms.com/soozlinkslist.html One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries. ~ A.
