I am working on my beading at the moment. The stitch I am learning is Peyote stitch, and I am working it in the round. Now I have got the hand of it, I am speeding up. Here are the books I just got from the Beaderworkers Guild. They are good, basic and informative, with no frills.

Beading Books
I have started doing a beading workshop run by a very talented lady from my art class. The jewellery class I was going to take last term was cancelled, but luckily this opportunity popped up. I haven't much to show for the beading, other than two 1 inch samples of Peyote stitch, but now I have cracked it I should be a lot faster!
These are the library books on beading that I am looking at. The one by Linda Peterson, I had out before. There are lots of ideas and techniques in all three books, and the photos are very eye-catching with a lot of texture. I am going to study them closely and do my homework, then hope I will have something to show you after the next class next month!
