Hood Canal Beadwork joined the Market in Fall of 2024! Roberta the artist behind Hood Canal Beadwork states "Beadwork is both a source of expression and a means of meditative relaxation for me. For many of my pieces I take inspiration from materials sourced from nature-turquoise, semiprecious stones, abalone, freshwater pearls etc. I love choosing colors and working out designs and then watching as the design or pattern comes to life as the piece is being beaded. I first began beading more than 30 years ago and returned to it in earnest about 8 years ago. Now I even dream about beads and beadwork patterns!"
