French Beaded Flowers: Part 3 - Shasta Daisy

Join Gigi to combine the techniques of continuous loops, continuous crossover loops, and leaf shapes using the basic wire technique.

The class does not go into great detail with each technique as it is expected that the student has previous experience with each technique, ideally by taking the two previous classes in this series.

This is the final class in three classes that will give you a beautiful set of beaded flowers (Part 1), complete with leaves (Part 2) and a Shasta daisy (Part 3).
