4.0 out of 5 stars Beaded Tassels, Jan 3 2001

By

Christine Saalbach (San Antonio TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Beaded Tassels, Braids & Fringes (Hardcover)

Want to dress up drapery tiebacks with tassels or hang your beads from the ceiling fan switch? Valerie's book gives you lots of ideas to serve as a springboard.

Not only does she give good instructions for traditional bead weaving, including brick, peyote, and netting stitches, to make your tassels, but also she shows how to make braids and cords. She suggests the combination of beads and cords in projects, including buried or berried bugle cords, crazy and flower chains, and branched fringe.

If you don't want to make tassels, but need ideas for fringes on medicine bag necklaces and amulet purses, this is the book for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Imaginative and content rich, Sep 20 2000

By

QuinnCreative "-Q" (Glendale, AZ, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Beaded Tassels, Braids & Fringes (Hardcover)

Beaders wanting to expand their talents can reach for this book for both inspiration and instruction. There are hundreds of ideas here, for every level. Not everyone will understand all the instructions and some of the components could have been written with more detail, but with a little effort and perseverence these projects are within reach of a dedicated beader. Serious beaders and tassel makers will revel in a book that provides challenges, solutions and professional results.
