Cyndy Sieving asked me to come up with a beaded doll project for her conference Artistic Figures in Cloth 2007. I'd been making some beaded wands for Whimbead Vegas Retreat, and was currently working on Broken Dreams at one of our Guilded Lilies meetings. Cyndy saw the, and encouraged me to come up with a class proposal. I was so nervous as I'd never taught before. I discovered something wonderful while teaching at AFIC. One was that Cyndy is one of the most fabulous dedicated organizers I've met. She's also funny and has become a dear friend. Second, I found out that I love to teach. Cyndy has asked me to come up with another beading class for AFIC 2009: http://www.cyndysdolls.com/index.htm
