Interweave Press
Amulet bags, evening bags, makeup bags, glasses cases and decorative bags all have one thing in common - they look better with beads! Jean Campbell, Founding Editor of Beadwork Magazine shows us how it's done!

Beautiful Photographs - Excellent Instructions

One of the most beautiful bead projects is the beaded bag. This delightful book, edited by Jean Campbell, the Founding Editor of Beadwork Magazine, is one of the finest works on beaded bags that I've seen.

Thirty patterns with a wide diversity in styles and beading techniques make up this excellent volume about using beads to create and adorn handbags. Included are Amulet bags, full-size purses, a Sioux Pipe Bag, a tote bag, an absolutely cool knitted market bag and loads of luscious evening bags are featured here.

And the artists - it is a round-up of some of the finest beading talent to be found! Jean Campbell, Barb Grainger, Margo Field, David Dean, Jeri Herrera, Chris Prussing, Nancy Zellers, Robin Atkins and many other have designed these beautiful beaded bags.

Don't miss this one - whether you've made one or a thousand beaded bags, you'll find something new and different in this collection! Beautiful photographs and complete, clear and understandable instructions are, of course, the to of the line. Priced at just $16.95, add this one to your "must-have" list!
