Explore the many different beaded images and shapes into which beads can be sculptured. The amazing detail of these designs results from the use of smaller beads. Delica beads are primarily used, along with some Hexagon, but size 14 Seed beads can be substituted.
The book included basic information on beads, needles, thread, wax, workspace and lighting. Techniques for basic brick stitch, fringe, and the methods needed for bead sculpturing, i.e. increasing and decreasing the number of beads in a row, are fully explained and illustrated. An outstanding book for the adventurous.
