Very helpful and illuminating book on seed beading. The diagrams are great, the stitch discussions excellent. The photography is clear and the text easy to follow. I've been looking for a good earring wire tutorial and was delighted to find one here. The patterns look interesting, if you are the sort who uses other people's patterns.
The emphasis is on beadweaving with some good illustrated instructions in the beginning. Has a variety of different projects like beaded cabochons. spiral work and some featured designers.

The Absolute Beginner's Guide--Learn By Doing * Step-by-Step Basics + Projects
by Tammy Powley
Having dabbled a bit in stringing beads I thought this might be the perfect book to give me a bit more information to use in the future and BOY did it ever! I have always wanted to know how to knot between beads and learned not only how to do so with one but also with two strands and didn’t even know that was possible. I saw more equipment for jewelry making than I realized there might be and learned the technical terms for various items. I had the urge to go out, buy some tools, buy some wire and beads and see what I could make. I didn’t go but I still wanted to and can see anyone reading this wanting to, too.
