Summary: Beginner's Guide to Beadwork
Review: As the title suggests this book is geared to the beginner. And, the photographs of the beadwork are absolutely stunning! Many photograhs are used to illustrate the techniques and projects which are more helpful than the usual diagrams used in many books on the subject. Techniques include: bead stringing, netting, peyote, brick, right-angle weave, and herringbone stitches. Although the projects given are simple for the beginner, the author also gives more advanced variations for some of the projects(such as the bracelet shown on the cover). Overall, this is a good, basic book for learning beadweaving, but, given it's price, would also serve as a useful addition to the advanced beader's library.
