Outstanding Book, must read if you make beaded jewelry,

This review is from: Jewels in Peyote Stitch: Twenty-Six Full-Color Patterns for Beaded Jewelry (Paperback)
I first became interested in this book on a recent trip to Colorado when I saw the author's incredible works of art displayed at the State Fair. Upon receiving the book I was delighted to see how MS Moring's talents extend to writing and teaching. This is a down to earth, easy to follow, how to book with colorful, illustrated diagrams. The instructions are so simple even I could follow them. Actually, this book is so attractive, we keep it on the coffee table. Buy it, you won't be disappointed.

not so simple to follow instructions,

This review is from: Jewels in Peyote Stitch: Twenty-Six Full-Color Patterns for Beaded Jewelry (Paperback)
Although the designs in this book are very beautiful, even at the intermediate skill level I find the instructions sorely lacking. Not only does each pattern leave one wondering what they are supposed to do (evidently a lot of creativity is needed in understanding what the author intends) there are no instructions whatsoever on how to make the straps. So, if you want the strap to be symmetrical, recommend using another one of your beading books that has full instructions, or, for those more creative than I am just figure it out on your own.
Not a book for beginners by any stretch of the imagination.

Finally, not a book for beginners with more than half the book taken up with beginner instructions. The pictures in the book do not do justice to the beauty of the worked designs! If you have done peyote in the past you will have no trouble with following the patterns.

This is a beautiful book of projects that are easy to do if you have ever done peyote stitch before. The projects are explained well and the beautiful illustrations make this a must have book. The price was just right on Amazon.com.

Appropiate for experts,
This review is from: Jewels in Peyote Stitch: Twenty-Six Full-Color Patterns for Beaded Jewelry (Paperback)
I did not use it since I could not follow the instruction; too complicate for a beginner.
