    Oh I need that book. What a great way for me to use all my extra seed beads from jewelry making.

  2. jen on August 10, 2011 5:30 am

    would love to win a copy of this book!

  3. Christina on August 10, 2011 5:40 am

    Sounds like it would finally get to me use all those pretty seed beads I’ve been collecting.

  4. Carrie on August 10, 2011 5:42 am

    I so need this book! I have so many beads!

  5. Lynette on August 10, 2011 5:45 am

    YES! Oh what a wonderful resource! When I was creating my first crazy quilt I remember how difficult it was to keep coming up with different embellishments for each seam. I even sat in the library for hours over and over, sketching embellishments I saw in old photos. This would have been such a help! I would adore this book and my grown daughter quilts too – she’d be delighted to use it too! THANKS for the chance!

  6. Lindsey on August 10, 2011 5:46 am
