Great stuff all, I saw the beading after I worked out a few issues...
...like 'peahen whats wrong with that', then 'oh the link doesnt work', reread post, light dawns!
A bit slow on the uptake tonight!
Must admit I fancy trying weaving as well.
Back when I was at school, feminism was at its height and I think we were among the last who had to learn cooking, sewing and basic crafts.
May have seemed like a drag at the time but I treasure having those skills now!
