Greetings from Taos, I hope this newsletter finds
you with a smile as you enjoy the last days of summer and look forward
to the Fall season. 2008 has already been a very busy year for me, teaching
32 workshops in nine cities nationwide; and I still have a dozen more
beaded chain workshops for
you to enjoy as listed below. |

September 26-28 - Taos Ski Valley I have recently relocated to sunny Taos, New Mexico and very proud
to be able to offer a weekend of jewelry workshops in my new hometown.
Hosted by the Taos
Ski Valley Chamber of Commerce, I will be leading three beaded
chain workshops at the base area of the ski resort at 9300 feet elevation. |

busy between venues, here are some 'take-home-test'
supply kits.

I have been working with the Swanstroms Tool Company to develop a new 'mandrel-tip pliers' in two distinct sizes for setting beads into chain designs in the 2nd book. When they are avalible for purchase, I will have them for sale on my website and offer a free tutorial. |
I have also delivery my 2nd book to
the Watson-Guptill Publishing house and it should be in print May 2009.
For the next newsletter, I am planning to post a quick tour of the beaded
jewelry projects in this sequel and offer advance copies for sale. |
