Marquette, MI – Marquette Regional History Center presents: Beading in Circles Workshop on Mondays, June 3rd and 10th from 11:00-1:00 pm.
Instructor: Cynthia Coté.
Fee: $40 + $5 materials. All materials will be provided by the instructor.

Two 2-hour sessions are required one week apart for time to complete the beadwork. Make a beautiful beaded rosette brooch or pair of earrings with Cynthia Coté.

The instructor will demonstrate the stitch and techniques for handling the tools and materials. She will lead the class step by step in the process of constructing the brooch or earrings. Samples of beadwork will be shown and a brief survey of appliqué beadwork will be presented. Two 2-hour sessions are required one week apart for time to complete the beadwork.
