Beadweaving Books
The Beadworkers Guild INTRODUCTION TO BEADWORK Series; Bracelets
The Beadworkers Guild INTRODUCTION TO BEADWORK; Bracelets is the first of a series of books being produced by the beadworkers guild. This book is designed for both the beginner and expert beader. The idea is to teach new stitches in beadweaving. The book covers all beadweaving stitches and has several designs to follow on each stitch. The diagrams are hand drawn and the book does contain several colour pictures showing you what your finished projects should look like! 112 pages contain handy pages of blank grids that can be photocopied to be used in your own designs. The book is spiral bound, which makes it easy to use whilst beading. The book doesn't keep closing on itself and you don't have to hold it open.

The Beadworkers Guild INTRODUCTION TO BEADWORK; Earrings (Brooches, Fringes & Tassels) is the second of a series of books being produced by the beadworkers guild. This book is designed for both the beginner and expert beader. The idea is to further develop the stitches in learnt in the first book of the series. You don't have to read the first book as this one has a section devoted to each stitch. There are over 50 projects in this book with handdrawn diagrams and colour pictures to show the finished items. There are easy and hard projects to follow. However we feel that this book is excellent for those who want to do something different with each of the beadweaving stitches. A handy book to have to refer to whilst learning the boundaries of each stitch. Like the above book, this one is also spiral bound, which makes it easy to use whilst beading. The book doesn't keep closing on itself and you don't have to hold it open.

You don't have to read either of the first two books as this one has a section devoted to each stitch. The projects create braids, lariats, collars, chokers and various ropes and are accompanied with hand drawn diagrams and colour pictures to show the finished items. There are easy and hard projects to follow. However we feel that this book is excellent for those who want to do something different with each of the beadweaving stitches.
