Beading by Diana Vernon
This book explores the wealth of possibilities that beading offers, from the very simplest trims and finishes to the creation of openwork beading and the use of beads to embellish embroidery, canvas-work and knitting. The different techniques included, ranging from needle-weaving to bead wrapping, fringing, and pin and wire beading, are all fully explained with step-by-step illustrations. Fabulous designs, with fully illustrated instructions, include beautiful beaded trims for cushions, bags and scarves, beaded lace made into chokers, bead-wrapped bracelets and an array of beaded buttons and tassels. The designs embrace traditional aspects of the craft, such as wire-beaded flowers, as well as the contemporary, such as pin-beaded sun and moon baubles. Both beginners and experienced beaders will welcome this book for its practical information and the inspiration provided by the stunningly photographed projects.
Diana Vernon has a degree in textile design and has been working for 25 years as a designer and lecturer.
