Wow - I love bold unusual designs using stitched beading & this book delivers this & more. The first half concerns stringing & wire work - good designs for all levels of experience. But it is the beautiful sculptural beading in the second part that has me drooling! Experienced or advanced stitchers looking for freeform peyote designs will LOVE this book.Superb cuffs, necklaces etc using a foundation of peyote stitch are then embellished with focal beads, texture, wire work etc. A lot of metallic/matt/opaque beads are pleated, woven & embellished with larger beads, charms, and wirework to create highly individual statement pieces that are sure to get attention.The instructions for the freeform peyote are, by nature, detailed for the basic structure then a little more sketchy regarding the additional embellishments. Beginners will struggle with this section - but what a fabulous inspiration to work towards.
