Cindy Holsclaw's Talisman - February 26, 2027
Talisman Live Virtual Zoom Workshop February 26, 2027, 11:00 AM-5:00 PM EST
Follow the curves of Talisman, a pendant where open loops of beadwork curl around a large faceted crystal. Bicone crystals and O beads accent the coils, a faceted crystal drop catches the light with every turn, and a gently twisting beaded chain carries the curves all the way around the necklace.
In this workshop, Cindy will show you how the thread path in coiled cubic right-angle weave (CRAW) makes the beadwork twist as you stitch. You’ll learn to coil in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, then combine the two in embellished components that give Talisman its distinctive shape. You’ll also use modified right-angle weave (MRAW) and fringe to finish the pendant.
If you already enjoy CRAW and want to see what else it can do, join Cindy to make Talisman and learn how to create spirals and sculptural curves you can use in future designs.
