I love this book. The designs are contemporary and the instructions are easy to follow. Plus, everything is in color!

This is a great book and helps me with creating new designs. I also like the graphs. I have shown this book to my beading friends and they like it to.

One of the best I have seen for beginners and advanced beaders, great instructions, handy hints, and helpful charts for creating your own designs.

The book is a good starter book or in my case refresher book.If you are looking to take up beading this should be on your list.
