A beady gathering in beautiful Richmond, BC

The girls are all here and talking beads.

 And more talk about beads...these ladies love their beads!!

Ania announces the unveiling of the Pacific Pyros T-shirts - she's standing next to my little studio.

Kerry, Ania and Barb display the T-shirts.

Kerry gets right into hers...literally.

Here's our newest member - Janet.

Ania and Kerry checking out some beads.

 Here's the Jim Moore bead lining tool I'm demonstrating.

First you attach the flanging head.

 Teamwork - holding down the tool while Joanne pulls the handle to start the lining.

 Now the rubber finished head is attached.

 The bead is inserted and I pull the handle to ensure the core is in tight.

More helping hands.

 After the bead was turned over one more pull to ensure it's even and tight.

  Tamara, Eljean, Lynn and Kerry.

Only 4 beads for the exchange... but they're beauties!!!

Had to show them again.
