Contemporary Cherokee Artist Karen Sixkiller offers beading workshops in collaboration with ʔaʔk̓ʷustəƞáwt̓xʷ House of Learning, Peninsula College Longhouse.
Learn the basics of bead embroidery with this easy eagle feather project. By sewing seed beads onto a stiff backing you'll have a versatile piece that can be worn by itself or added to a hat, purse, jacket; similar to any other embroidered patch. Once you've learned the basics through this workshop you can easily modify the pattern or make your own. Students will learn how to use a pattern, embroider with beads in straight and curved lines, finish a project and how to add their finished piece to clothing or accessories. All materials included.
Open to students 12+ with a parent/guardian also enrolled.
