My name is Nina G. Libin.
Born in St.Petersburg, Russia, I design beaded lace,
teach basic tatting, tatting with beads, and
BEANILE jewelry for advanced tatters.
I am the author of a few magazine articles
on bead tatting and the book "Tatted Lace of Beads, the Techniques
of BEANILE Lace"published by LACIS in 1998.
Have learned to crochet and knit at seven.
Started sewing at twenty.
But only in mid-forties have discovered tatting and beads.
So these two are my latest love, I design,
teach, and write about beaded lace.
