Book - Beading with Cubes and Triangles - By Alice Korach
If you've ever stared at a package of cubes beads or triangle beads, lovingly caressing the package and admiring the colour, but then talked yourself out of them because "what would I do with them?" - then this is your book. If you didn't talk yourself out of them, this is REALLY your book. The author says " There?s a reason why cubes and triangles are underrepresented in project books. They?re tricky beads to use well with those sharp angles and big holes. And I?d done very little with them for that very reason. But I like a fun challenge ... one idea led to the next at a dizzying rate." There are some really intriquing projects here - I might almost be seduced by them. Index page - shows projects.

Book - Delica Beaded Jewelry - By Alice Korach (1)
It's flattering that Miyuki asked for a book of projects to introduce their new size 10/0 Delica beads. And that is exactly what Design Originals and Alice Korach's book "Delica" accomplishes. We wanted to give Miyuki and you more than anyone would expect. Alice wondered why there was a need for an in-between size of Delica beads. Size 11/0 Delicas have been available for about fifteen years and size 8/0 Delicas (or 3mm) for about ten years. Sure, it's a bit large if you want to weave a detailed pictorial tapestry, but it's a wonderful size for jewelry projects with more abstract designs. It wasn't until Alice actually began working on her designs, however, that she discovered how much she LOVES this new size bead. We hope you'll enjoy the projects in this book as much as we know you'll like size 10/0 Delicas. Softcover.
