2.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointing if you wanted the bead loom part.............., 14 Aug 2001
By C. Vile "bonesy10" (U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I recently bought a bead loom, and needed inspiration in the form of patterns and designs. My loom came with an instruction sheet.

This book is a slim paperback American book about American Indian beading techniques. It contains 80 pages. Only 5 pages are dedicated to bead looms (and one of those is a grid for designing your own pattern).

The book is full of ways of making other bead items and is probably quite good for that. There are lots of hand drawn illustrations but very few photos, all of which are in black and white. The photos show a collection of items so it is difficult to see the detail.

Bead loom tips.

Most of the instructions in the book have already been described on the instruction sheet with the loom. There are a few tips that may come in useful to new bead loomers - such as how to make your own crude loom and advice that the one I bought is not much good (thanks), but there is only one sample pattern given. I bought this book on the strength of a previous review - but wish that I hadn't now. There is one technique detailed that I may try for making tubular beaded items. But the book warns that you must be careful with designs so that Indian people are not offended!

One useful tip that I was given in a craft shop was that cross stitch patterns could be used adapting the colours to those available.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, 29 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This book was recommended from a friend. I found some wonderful patterns that were quite successful, however, being a fairly new beader, I think there were some assumptions that one already knew what to do. HIGHLY recommended for intermediate beaders, though! And I look forward to being able to reach that summit!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant !!!!, 2 April 2005
By A Customer
Never judge a book by its cover!!! It looks dull and small but it is packed with great information and extremely clear instructions! Lots and lots of ideas, packed with beautiful beaded chain patterns and stories about where they come from. Looks a little like a notebook inside. I just love it!!
