Beadwork, which has typically been used in fashion, home decoration, and jewelry, is reaching for new horizons and showing up on quilts, journals, knits, crochet, and fiber arts of all kinds. In this book, author Patti Medaris Culea and beading experts Anne Hesse and Laura McCabe illustrate new ways of using various bead techniques to embellish the cloth doll. Sections include the basics of beadwork, beaded flowers for her hair, bead embroidered faces, starbursts (using crystals to enhance the figure), and wings and things (creating wings, crowns, and shoes with beads). Each chapter presents a different type of beading application in detail, with full instructions. Techniques are highlighted with step-by-step photos. A gallery of interpretations of the same pattern by leading artists is included for further inspiration. 544517 1 4 2007 Creative Cloth Doll Beading: Designing and Embellishing with Beads total:4|5:2|4:1|2:1| 4 16 6 1 5 0 false false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Jan 07 20:46:35 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 07 20:46:35 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Oct 16 21:25:06 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 16 21:25:06 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Sep 28 10:16:09 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 16:25:16 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 28 10:16:09 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Mar 01 09:43:51 -0800 2009 Sun Mar 01 09:43:51 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 07 07:02:15 -0700 2008 Wed May 07 07:02:15 -0700 2008 2 0 false false Tue Aug 14 06:20:05 -0700 2007 Tue Aug 14 06:20:05 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=557333
