Tambour beading adds the glitz and glamour to haute couture, wedding dresses, movies, and theater productions and Karen Torrisi is one of the best in the business. In a show sponsored by the Embroiderers’ Guild of America (egausa.org), we learn about Karen’s fascinating and wide-ranging career and what it’s like to embellish garments for some of the world’s biggest fashion and entertainment organizations. Want to learn tambour beading? Visit Karen’s site for classes and kits. Check below for a slideshow of Karen’s work.–Gary
