I have been bead weaving for over a year; and this is one of the best books on the subject I've found. I learned my lesson with expensive poor quality beading books. I borrowed "this book" from my local library to check it out before spending any more of my hard earned money. I have purchased several that are rather disappointing in the direction department, which is not the case with Carol Huber Cypher's book. She even includes little mantras with each stitch to help you develop a rhythm while you bead. In the other beading books, many of the projects featured are for things that I would never be interested in taking the time and effort to create. However, when I browsed through "Mastering Beadwork", I couldn't wait to start beading. There were so many projects, I wanted to attempt. Looks like I'm going to be busy for quite some time. By the way, the book is bound like a loose leaf note book; so it is very easy to look at the instructions while you are working. A must have for any beadweaver!!!Read full review
This book will also help you learn by making each chapter into a separate class by making the project! Love this book!
