From popular author Jamie Cloud Eakin comes a fantastic all-around bead-embroidery guidebook. Modeled on Eakin's acclaimed "Beading with Cabochons," "Dimensional Bead Embroidery" shows beaders how to use old stitches in new ways and lays out boundary-breaking techniques for embroidering beads onto a base fabric with beaded bezels. Focusing especially on cabochons and large, eye-catching focal beads, the book covers decorative stitches such as fringes, picots, and rope edging. Nine illustrated projects include bracelets, necklaces, earrings, a brooch, and a purse. handicrafts jewellery & jewellery-making beadwork & friendship bracelets
