Ich habe noch einen Buchvorschlag für Eure Liste:
"Beading with Peyote Stitch" von Jeanette Cook und Vicki Star.
Das Buch ist im Interweave Press Verlag (USA) erschienen, ich habe es kürzlich bei Amazon.de bestellt (leider
kann ich mich an den Preis nicht mehr erinnern).
Es ist auf Englisch geschrieben, ich weiß auch nicht, ob es inzwischen eine deutsche Übersetzung gibt.
In dem Buch sind detaillierte Anleitungen für Peyote-Techniken beschrieben und farbig bebildert, also man kann
es auch verstehen, wenn man nicht gut Englisch versteht. Und im Anhang sind Werke amerikanischer Künstler
abgebildet, die man sich als Anfänger allerdings vielleicht nicht unbedingt angucken sollte, wenn man sich
schnell entmutigen lässt.
Dieses Buch liegt bei mir immer griffbereit auf meinem Basteltisch. Ich lasse mich immer wieder gerne davon
inspirieren.

Ich denke, dieses Buch gehört unbedingt mit auf die Liste, grade für Anfänger!

Some of the most elegant contemporary jewelry includes no precious gemstones, or even gold or silver. What artist-author Wells (Creative Beadweaving, 1996) conjures up in more than 30 bracelets, earrings, and necklaces is nothing short of breathtaking--all with a variety of colored seed beads, occasional larger beads, strong thread, and a flexible needle. The projects are built around five stitches--chevron chain, crocheted ropes, herringbone and peyote stitches, and spiral rope--all of which, the author assures us, can be readily mastered by beginners. Although 100 percent of the fundamentals, from graphic illustrations and charts to accompanying text and great color photographs, are all present and accounted for, it's still a better bet for novices to start with a kinder, gentler, and easier text. Galleries inserted liberally throughout the narrative capture the real meaning of aesthetic bead weaving. Barbara Jacobs

Beading on a Loom
Pierce, Don
Taschenbuch - 112 Seiten - Interweave Press
Erscheinungsdatum: 1. August 1999
ISBN: 1883010632

From Library Journal
Large decorative tassels are usually made by covering a wooden mold with cord or thread. Campbell-Harding adds beads in a variety of beading patterns to her tassels, creating delightful lacy baubles that can be used to embellish curtains, lampshades, or clothing. Pierce specializes in beaded bands, many inspired by Native American designs, made on a traditional beading loom and used as neckpieces. His book concentrates on looming techniques and includes photographs of his own works and those of others. Both books are good additions to general crafts collections.
