About
the Author Vicki
Star is partner with Jeannette Cook in Beady Eyed Women® Enterprises. Together
they have six self-published books in print, plus Beading with Peyote Stitch,
over one hundred patterns, a website, and a newsletter. Vicki teaches workshops
nationwide, and attends the major bead shows and a vendor and instructor. She
and her family live in the San Diego, California area. Back Cover InformationThe
fifth in a series of singe-technique books on the art and craft of beadwork from
Beadwork Magazine. Although other books have mentioned the herringbone
technique, this is the first book solely dedicated to this strong and versatile
stitch, whose flat and sculptural technique gives fabric a snakeskin-like appearance.
Beading with Herringbone Stitch traces the history of the stitch from its Ndebele
roots in tribal South Africa, describes the proper supplies needed, and provides
an exhaustive techniques section that describes not only the basic stitch, but
how to create tubes, curls, circles, and arcs. A gallery of contemporary herringbone
beadwork will inspire you to experiment with this unique technique, and you'll
find that once you've learned it, the herringbone stitch will mean quick beadwork.
