Hello, my name is Amanda. I graduated college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art around 2010 with a focus in printmaking but my interest in art involved a wide range of mediums. My love of bead weaving started around 2014. I was using beads and sequins to create embroidered designs on felt, a method inspired by my grandmother’s hand embroidered Christmas Stockings. I started researching beadwork and embroidery and came upon different weaving techniques. I started weaving hollow rope necklaces and that evolved into learning flat stitches for earrings. Recently I have been focusing on structural weaving for small vessels.
