“In this book, you’ll find two inspiring loom-weaving projects that will help you discover how easy that technique can be.”

“In addition to being obsessed with beads, I’ve loved working with fiber ever since I was a bitty girl and my neighbor taught me a type of Swedish cross stitch. I knit, crochet, spin, weave, embroider, sew, and needlepoint. I once even tried to knot a fishing net. So getting to combine fibers with beads has been a real treat. And working with contributors as talented as Nicolette Stessin and Carol Cypher has been a delight, too.

We’ve defined the term ‘fiber’ loosely here. It refers to such traditional fibers as wool, thread, and yarn as well as to any material that you can knot or weave, including leather and flexible beading wire. In this book, you’ll find two inspiring loom-weaving projects that will help you discover how easy that technique can be. Several approaches to braiding are included, along with projects that combine leather with beads and wire. Lastly but certainly not least, are instructions for felting beads and a lariat.

I hope you enjoy the wealth of techniques and the wide range of styles and projects as much as I enjoyed gathering, making, and editing them for you. Have fun with your beads and fibers; that’s what it’s all about.”
