I got my copy - looks terrific Andrea! I learned how to make this bead in one of Andrea's classes, but my notes are horrible. So nice to have a printed copy with great pictures!

Thanks Andrea!

Cheers
Kathy

Andrea I love this tut! I wanted to make some space beads for my Dr. Who crazed daughters and this is perfect. Here are a couple I did.



Thanks so much for doing this!
