June/July 2002 - Classroom

As most of you know, the last month or so have not been very good ones for me. It has taken me awhile to get back into the swing of things and with so many personal responsobilities, I have not had the time to work on the graphics for either this part of the ezine nor the free pattern.

So rather than disapoint you, I thought it might be a good idea to share some of my favourite links to tutorials available on the web. Following on from last months subject - netting - check out the following wonderful bead sites for more information, variations, inspirations etc.
