If you are a beader living anywhere around the Puget Sound, then you should definitely check out the Northwest Bead Society. And if you're like me and love seed beads, then you definitely need to check out the Seedbeaders' group. This includes anyone who might be visiting the area. If your trip coincides with one of the meetings, consider dropping by; guests are always welcome!
To make it easier to visit, I'm including the schedule for upcoming Seedbeaders Programs through early February 16th. Each meeting, one of our members agrees to host a mini-tutorial, sharing a project or technique. Everyone's welcome to work on the project of the month, or bring your own project (or simply visit with everyone else). We meet from 10:30-3:00 on the fourth Sunday of the month. Supply lists are generally posted to the Yahoo group (search for 'seedbeaders') about a month before each tutorial.

There's something powerful about beading in the company of friends. Personally, I feel incredibly fortunate to be part of a group like the Seedbeader's. Their camaraderie, inspiration and support is fantastic.
One caveat regarding the schedule - since scheduled workshops may change due to all sorts of circumstances beyond anyone's control, it's a good idea to join the Yahoo groups if you are hoping/planning to attend. That way you'll get the most up-to-date info.
