Thanks! I might just have put that on my Christmas list. Much cheaper
than taking a class at the bead store. Valerie Dr. Sooz wrote: There are also beaded beads instructions (of various kinds) in this book (which is **fabulous** overall, Valerie2): The Art and Elegance of Beadweaving by Carol Wilcox Wells -- $14.95 http://snipurl.com/7m4m The instructions throughout this book are so dang easy and clear. The beaded beads are a lot easier than you'd ever dream. Because beading on a glass bead makes it very heavy I like doing it on plastic beads. When I do peyote on beads I glue a very small strip of interfacing around the center of the bead, then attach the first row back stitching to this strip. Then the rest of the peyote goes very easily by decreasing the stitch with each new row. I hope that makes sense. ~~ Sooz |

I can highly recommend this book, I will be seeing her step daughter next
week who also does some really great work. All of Carol's books are wonderful. Roxan "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message ...

I'm constantly seeing new ideas and variations on a theme. My son may be missing all his wooden beads shortly! -Su |
