The Bead Cave

A gathering of the AOL Bead Board Irregulars

and friends

The Bead Cave at the Hyatt was a wonderful place. I thought of it as the 90's version of an old time quilting bee. There was the sound of many happy, excited voices filling the room. There was much show and tell, and sharing. From the left (faces showing) is Nan Gaiter (Nangotoo) and Anna Beall (F1reandice). In the back of the room you can see Brenda Whitehead and Sue Harrison.
From the left is Cisco Cosgrove (BeadWear), Bernadina (RockinFS) and Sandi Graves. In the foreground you can see (tease) a glimpse of the evening bags and bracelets that Cisco, and Katie made for Suzanne Coopers newest book.
Here is Betsy Ventrella (BeyondBead) admiring the work of Katie Maguire (KatieLiz).
Here is Carol Bauer (CarolB1234) wearing her beautiful Cat In My Garden necklace, one of her original designs.
This is Susan Swartz (Beadmomsw) showing us the fused glass pendant she had made during her class. Susan also brought wonderful Fannie Farmer fudge from Chicago. It was irresistible!
