Publisher's Synopsis
The difference between amateur and professional results: Consistency, systems and habits.
Bead weaving, like any other craft, is a creative process that demands a wide array of design skills.
Composition, color, contrast, weaving techniques... are just a few of the parameters to consider in order to make a great beadwork project.
All of them are crucial, but getting organized and planning ahead is the key to make them work together.
Patricia Fritzmeier´s collection of seed bead graph papers is a simple yet effective tool to help you to set those systems in place.
Drawing and planning ahead the pieces will boost not only your production times, but your creativity.
