Kings' and queens' embroidery, 1920s flapper dresses, bridal gowns and red carpet fashions - all enhanced by the little known art of tambour beading.
Tambour beading is a hand-beading technique performed with a hook in a holder which holds a shortened French Cornelli needle, used to bead onto fabric that is stretched over a frame. Once considered a social pastime in the 1700s, tambour beading has grown into such a highly kept secret among fashion designers that there are very few people in the U.S. who can teach this technique.
This high-fashion, hand-beading technique will be taught by beading master Robert Haven, owner of Bead Embroidery and Design Studio in Lexington, KY. Haven has taught master classes in beading around the world. His work has won awards in numerous needlework exhibitions and was featured on CBS's "Good Morning, America."
