About the Author

Helen Banes is a fibre artist and jewellery designer. Born in Chicago in 1920, she has studied at the University of Maryland and Parsons School of Design. She is a founding member of Fiberworks Gallery in Alexandria, Virginia, and the founding president of the Bead Society of Greater Washington. A desire to incorporate beads and other perforated objects into her woven pieces led to her most important artistic innovation: the method of stringing beads on a double warp, using a shaped loom on a light-weight portable board. She has given numerous lectures and workshops throughout the US and Canada, and her necklaces have been exhibited in galleries, including the Smithsonian Institute.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Eye-Candy, 1 Dec 2000
By A Customer
What a beautiful book. The photography is gorgeous. The layout is very good too. I have one or two disappointing things to say about it - I don't think there was enough pages dedicated to the actual technique, I thought it was quite basic. I preferred Helen Banes last book and am glad I have both so I can refer to her earlier one. Having said that, I am glad I bought this one too, the photographs in it are worth the money alone, and I would consider it an inspirational book, rather than a how-to, which, to me, is more important.
