Anastasia2011

What an amazing workshop!

Thank you to everyone who came to support the studio and challenge themselves to this amazing and most challenging workshop. Anastasia is not only a fantastic person but she is just as equally an amazing tutor. It was an absolute pleasure having Anastasia here and we will definitely look into having her back again.

The first day and very first task was pulling stringers thinner than hair, the test is to tie a knot in it! then we had to learn how to apply those to a bead… no problemo :) I can hand on heart say it only got harder and more invigorating. Pushed beyond our comfort zones I think I speak for all when I say What a GAS!
