Synopsis

Don't know the first thing about beading? All it takes are some seed beads, a bit of thread, wire, or glue, a needle, and a little inspiration from "Getting Started with Seed Beads". This must-have resource includes all the basics in a warm, encouraging tone: how to shop for beads, findings, and tools, giving the basic techniques with clear step-by-step full colour illustrations, and of course plenty of great projects. With "Getting Started with Seed Beads", you'll begin by simply gluing beads to a base, then progress logically to manipulating traditional stitches such as peyote, backstitch and brick stitch. You'll also learn how to finish off your project expertly. Projects include beaded greeting cards, a curiously beaded tin, a cross-stitch tote, a beaded and sequined pin, a fabric floral patch, beaded ribbons, a loomworked choker, and much, much more.
