STITCH SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY Inspired Bead Embroidery — 16 Creative Jewelry Projects

There's a moment every beader knows. The moment a focal piece — a glass cabochon, a metal stamping, a shell from the beach — meets beading foundation and a threaded needle, and you realize you're about to make something no one else has ever made before.

Inspired Bead Embroidery by Sherry Serafini lives in that moment — and it stays there for 16 extraordinary projects.

Sherry Serafini is one of the most celebrated bead embroidery artists in the world. Voted one of America's Top 10 Beading Instructors by Bead&Button magazine. Winner of first place at Bead Dreams. Her beaded art has been worn by Grammy winner Melissa Etheridge, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, Lenny Kravitz, and Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas. Her work has been shown at fashion week in Milan.
