self learning textbook for 6 basic stitches
I was very excited about this author's first book so I see no reason not to also like this second one. She has 6 basic stitches with the emphasis on peyote in all its types. Three patterns for spiral rope for bracelet, necklace, and lariat. This is followed by patterns in 6 sitches. They include rings in peyote, eyeglass chain and bracelet in daisy, cellphone strap and bracelet in herringbone, ...

New Needle Techniques & Original Designs
This is the latest book I have purchased by Ann Benson. She is one of the best instructions and illustrations for beading techniques I have encountered. I have many of her books, and have purchased many of her kits offered on her website. Her choice of colors are subtle in a time when everything is so bold. Her style is more European. I can't reccommend this book more highly. Joan

Lacking
Found this book to be too small. Not many pages or projects. Go for the best of bead and button which is far better and well worth the money.

excellent patterns in a beautiful book!!
I am as addicted to books as I am to beading! Two of my favorite books are by Carol Wilcox Wells and though I have purchased many books since hers have been published, this is the first I would rank as highly as I rank hers. It is filled with inspiring, beautiful, and most importantly, ORIGINAL designs. It is a book that is a wonderful addition to an intermediate to advanced beader's library. ...

This is the book to get
This was the first bead book that I checked out from the library and I looked at it and had to get some beads. Her instructions and illustrations are clear and easy to follow and the projects are beatiful. She shows you different variations of stiches so you can make variations and create your own designs. I have completed at least four of the projects and I am happy with the results. I had to ...
