I first saw this book recommended on a beading site. What a fantastic book for teaching all the basics and then some. I covers threads, needles, types of beads and fabrics. Then it shows you the basic stitches and more advanced ones. It's not just for beading on quilts. It also shows you how to do buttons, brooches and other decorative items. many great inspirational pages. I'd recommend this book to others who are beginner-intermediate beaders and there's even some ideas for advanced beaders. While it doesn't go into all the beading stitches there is enough to get started and from there you can experiment. The spiral binding is a bonus if you want the book to lie flat while trying some stitches.

This is an excellent book for beginners as well as those who have beaded on fabric before. Takes you from the types of beads and fabrics to the actual creating of designs. There are lots of great pictures and well written instructions. I was inspired to do more beadwork on my quilting.

This is an excellent book. I find the techniques in this book are very help and easy to follow.
