Barbara Elbe

Spotlight Artist

I like to call Barbara the "Bird Beader" as she has done some of the most gorgeous renditions of birds in Peyote stitch I have ever seen, as well as many other designs! Barbara has also written four wonderful books on beadwork, all of which are reviewed on the Beadwork site. She is currently in the planning stages of yet another book, which I'm sure will be as terrific as the previous four. I certainly am looking forward to it.

Barbara has prepared a deightful personal introduction for us. She is a sweet and charming person as well as an expert beader.

And speaking of charming, take a look at this adorable pattern Barbara has prepared for us. An enchanting Lighthouse Pattern for Square Stitch or Loom; it is just beautiful. And, if you need the beads to complete this pattern, take a look at Barbara's Supplies page on her Web site. Barbara has an excellent selection of Delicas; in fact, she may have them all!!

Please join me in thanking Barbara for being our Spotlight Artist and be sure to check back again for the nest Spotlight Artist.
