"Beaded Colorways" offers readers inspiration and direction for working with colour and creating custom colour mixes - which the author calls 'bead soups' - based on colours in nature and other sources. In addition to learning how to mix colours, readers will learn how to combine beads with metal work and expand several basic off-loom beadweaving techniques such as peyote, netting, waves and free form stitches. This title features twenty step-by-step projects that combine the colour work and beadweaving to create exquisite, inspirational projects.
