Our featured book this month is
Beadmaille
by Cindy Thomas Pankopf
Beadmaille by Cindy Thomas Pankopf. Weaving Soft Flex through metal links or jump rings to create a modern feeling jewelry design is a very appealing technique that I've been playing around with this past year. It was really neat to see the beadweaver's version. The illustrations in this book look as if they would be really clear and easy to understand. Although the design ideas may look complicated, it seemed like all of the projects were doable by a new beader.
