My name is Liz and I'm a self-taught beader living in Monmouthshire, South Wales. I first started using beads in my cross stitching many years ago and it gradually progressed from there. The company I stitched samples for once sent me some bracelet kits to make up - simple seed bead plaits - so I guess they were my very first pieces!
I've been beading seriously for several years now and still enjoy a wide range of techniques from beading with seeds to stringing, wirework, polymer clay and will have a go at pretty much anything.
I was so pleased to win the challenge this month, especially as the piece I entered used a new technique that I'd just learned - Cellini Spiral. I have a project coming up in Bead magazine early 2009 which I'm very excited about and hopefully it will be the first of many.
