This comprehensive guide to off-loom, seed-bead weaving uses the square stitch. Over 220 color photos illustrate the step-by-step instructions that clearly explain the stitching and joining techniques for novices as well as advanced weaver-jewelery makers. Three necklace designs feature easily available and the artist’s handmade glass beads in a palette of seasonal colors. The Autumn Harvest necklace is a classic design inter-woven with copper beads and findings. The Purple Mountains panels are accented with amethyst and crystal, and the Blueberry Parfait pattern looks luscious enough to eat. This easy-to-read pattern book is for anyone interested in learning off-loom, seed-bead weaving.
