4.0 out of 5 stars
A great source for Native American designs.,
By A Customer
This review is from: American Indian Beadwork (Beadwork Books) (Paperback)
I have read and used this book many, many times. When I was just starting to bead, this book was a wealth of patterns and colors for me. And that was a long time ago. I believe it was written with children in mind, but if you want to see Native American beadwork designs, and the traditional colors that were used, this is the book.

Great beginners book for Native Style Beadwork,
This review is from: American Indian Beadwork (Beadwork Books) (Paperback)
I have sold this book for years in my store, Blue Hawk Beads in Pendleton, OR.
It is a very good book for beginners who may be overwhelmed by more extensive instructions yet it still contains ideas, patterns, and good pointers for the more experienced. There are numerous looming patterns and others in the back.
5.0 out of 5 stars
