Quilting with Mary Maley

“This was a fun and insightful class! I was a complete beginner to beading and learned a solid foundation of basic skills, plus made a lot of headway on my chosen design during the class. Savannah’s designs are fun and incorporate beautiful color pallets with fun imagery.” -Mads Wolf

“Savannah is really patient and very skilled. I’ve never tried beading- and I consider myself crafty, but this work is a bit challenging. I’m so glad she was able to guide me kindly. Really fun class!” -Kamarie Chapman

“Savannah was incredibly knowledgeable, and I loved the opportunity to learn beadwork from another Indigenous artist. As a visual and hands-on learner, I appreciated how she took the time to demonstrate the stitching techniques and then guided me through practicing them immediately.” -Rochelle Smallwood

“Savannah shared her knowledge of the two-needle flat stitch method with patience and generosity, creating an environment where both beginners and experienced makers felt comfortable learning and creating. Her connection to her Tsimshian, Haida, and Nimiipuu heritage came through in the care she brought to the craft and in the conversations she encouraged throughout the session. The program was engaging, accessible, and deeply appreciated by everyone who attended.” -Jeremy Dennis

“Savannah is a wonderful teacher! She’s also very personable and easy to be around. I thought beading would be really difficult, but she made it easy and fun and now I work on projects solo. She really created a love of beading in me.” -Lindsey Johnson
