Join us at the Holburne Museum on 9 May to create a fabulous floral beadwork design inspired by a rare seventeenth century Bead Basket made in England. You will also be treated to a viewing of the basket depicting Charles II next to a castle within a leafy landscape.

During the class, RSN Tutor, Deborah Wilding will show you how to create a beaded stitched background similar to the basket work of the original and then move on to create individual wired elements matched to the flowers and animals which decorate the basket.

Your kit will include the background fabric, beads, threads, needles, padding string, wires and a full instruction booklet so you can complete any elements you did not complete in class.

This event includes entrance to the museum which you will be able to visit at lunchtime and after the class until the museum closes at 5pm. You may view many of the museum’s magnificent objects including exquisite embroideries and  Georgian portraits.
