Customer Review:
You don't want to buy this bag if you are looking for handbag patterns to follow. The bags are ugly, but some of the design elements can easily be modified to make something a little more fashionable. There are some decent construction tips, which was the whole point of me buying the book.

I wanted to make amulet bags, and as a beginning beader, decided to jump right in and try. The directions are very easy to follow and include little purses using a variety of stitches: peyote, square, brick, and netting. They suggest colors but the user can really use whichever colors they like with... more info
