  • BEAUTIFUL, UNIQUE patterns using 2 hole beads in new and exciting ways
If you are like me and love the look of the 2 hole beads but have more then you know what to do with them, THIS is the book for you. The various patterns for earrings, bracelets and necklaces are all unique and beautiful. Each one is an individual creation and not just the same pattern over and over with tiny differences. The patterns are easy to follow with clear graphics, well written instructions and beautiful photos. The book arrived quickly and in like new condition. I am definitely looking for other books written by Virginia Jensen and will buy from this seller again. ... show more

  • Good pattern bases and explanations
I've been beading for a while but my teen just started and she likes duo and tile beads because they work up fast and she's kind of impatient. She was getting bored with the patterns she had found but this book helped her see bead size relationships ina new way that other patterns don't explain. This book works with several beads that work with tiles and duos to create many design ideas that are easy to personalize to your own beads. ... show more
