ZULU INSPIRED BEADWORK

By Diane Fitzgerald

(paperback) 128 pages, colour (2007) £17.95 + £ £2.50 p&p (Code no sp3901)

Following on from Diane’s very popular self-published booklets Zulu Beaded Chain Techniques and More Zulu Beadwork, this is a major book devoted to the techniques of weaving and stringing used by Zulu women.
In the last decade, there has been a growing worldwide interest in South African beadwork. In Zulu Inspired Beadwork bead master Diane Fitzgerald shares her expertise on Zulu beadwork with 25 stunning projects, celebrating the culture of this indigenous population.
It begins with an introduction to Zulus and their beadwork, an inside look at the importance of beads in this South African culture, and the many beading techniques – some of which have never been published until now – used by Zulu women to create adornment. The author shares several dozen unique beading techniques garnered from years of visiting South Africa and countless hours spent examining and dissecting Zulu beadwork.
Next move into projects inspired by the author’s visits to Africa, including netted diamond earrings, a netted triangle and swag bracelet, zigzag chain, and a Zulu wedding necklace. Techniques include netting, wrapping, fringing, braiding, and weaving. Projects are illustrated with easy-to-follow diagrams and supplemented with helpful hints. Readers will find gorgeous photographs of original Zulu beadwork juxtaposed with the author’s interpretation of the design and techniques. Part how-to, part history, part travelogue, Zulu Inspired Beadwork is a beading journey in a book.

Here is Jennie's fourth and eagerly-anticipated new book and here's what she says about it:

"Well, here we go again, another beaded needlecase book. I can hardly believe this is the fourth one I've published. I must be needlecase crazy! I hope you will be pleased with the needlecase designs in this book as well as the matching scissor/thread-cutter fobs (or earrings, if you prefer). I thought it would be a nice way to have your tools complement each other and mark them as your property. A fob is a small medallion or ornament attached with a short ribbon or chain which hangs from something else."
