Great British Bead Show 2009
The next GBBS will be May 2009
The 2007 GBBS was held on Thursday 10th May to Sunday 13th May at The Daventry Hotel.
We were delighted to welcome back Cynthia Rutledge who gave a master class, followed by two fabulous workshops and an entertaining talk 'Inspired to Bead'.
We also welcomed many of our members to the event, and here are some of their comments:
- "Had a brilliant time, learnt loads, thank you very much for all your hard work."
- "Many thanks to all organisers and tutors for a wonderful event. A lovely friendly atmosphere and giving of your time so freely. Would miss these weekends dreadfully if they ever stopped. A very big thank you to you all."
- "This was the first GBBS weekend I've attended and have enjoyed every minute of it. It has been very well run, the classes were excellent and the hotel was good too. It has all gone by very quickly. Many thanks to everyone for giving us such a great weekend."
- "I had a fantastic time with lots of laughs. Looking forward to many more weekends with The Beadworkers Guild."
- "Its been a smashing weekend pure indulgence! Thanks to everyone involved in organizing it."
- "This was my first GBBS and workshop and I have thoroughly enjoyed the event. Everybody has been very friendly and helpful, I cant wait for the next one in two years time."
