Book excerpt: Anyone wanting to learn Loom Beading can pick up this book, buy supplies with confidence, build a simple frame loom and complete a project. All aspects of beginning bead looming are covered and once the first small pattern is complete, it is a simple matter to enlarge on the mini-loom, or to move up to a commercial beading loom. The results can be left on the loom, turning the mini-frame loom into a miniature frame for the loomed picture. This framed picture can be trimmed (or not) and used as a suncatcher, other decorative ornament or to spruce up the car's rear view mirror. It can also be mounted on a base. The base may be embellished to create a mini sculpture. By constructing a slightly larger mini-frame loom, it is possible to remove the finished work from the loom. These loomed strips can be stitched onto garments or accessories such as barrettes or bags and pouches. Several projects are specifically designed for barrettes and/or strips. The patterns are beautiful, ranging broadly from Navajo rug designs, Kokopelli and geometric Indian designs to Orcas, Eagles, Wolves, fanciful Polar Bears, an Old Fashioned Sampler and Snowmen. They will charm bead workers of all skill levels. All the patterns can be used on larger looms or as part of a larger picture. There are step-by-step instructions and every pattern has a color code, bead count, and color photo. Plus, there is information on bead sizes, number of beads per hank or gram, and advice on how to compare prices. In addition there is a variety of beading graph paper for seed beads, 2-cut, and delica beads. This book answers every crafter's questions. 116 fun-filled pages. A book you won't want to miss!

Book excerpt: The psalms made intimate and tangible Life is often so busy and chaotic that even when we do find time to pray, our minds cannot settle and our thoughts drift to the stresses and concerns that pull our attention elsewhere. With the use of beads, however, our bodies are incorporated into the act of praying, allowing us to remain present with God in a state of peaceful meditation.

By virtue of this repetition, the psalmists’ praises, laments, and supplications become something deeply felt instead of only distantly understood.

Sisters of Sugarcreek (One of Booklist’s Top 10 Inspirational Fiction for 2017) Many lives were changed the day a fire burned down Faith Community Church, devastating the small town of Sugarcreek, Ohio. Now a young Amish widow, Lydia Gruber faces an uncertain future. Her husband, a craftsman and volunteer firefighter, always took care of everything, keeping her isolated from others in their community. Without anyone or any skills, how will she survive? With the death of her beloved aunt Rose in the fire, single mom Jessica Holtz inherits Rose’s Knit One Quilt Too cottage. Though determined to keep the shop open in her aunt’s memory, she doesn’t know the first thing about knitting and quilting and begins to see her aunt’s dream slip through her fingers. When Liz Cannon lost her dear friend Rose, she also lost her partner in the Secret Stitches Society—the name they gave themselves while delivering gifts of hope to troubled folks in the dark of night. Liz convinces Jessica to keep the anonymous society going, despite the younger women’s inadequacy with knitting and sewing needles. But soon Liz has problems of her own as the life she has rebuilt for herself begins to crumble again. When Liz and Jessica choose Lydia for their first mission, the three women cross paths and form an unlikely friendship in the aftermath of tragedy. As they walk together through triumph and heartbreak—through grief and new chances at love—they begin to discover that with friends by your side, a stitch of hope can be found anywhere.
Download or read book Beads Bodies and Trash written by David Redmon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beads, Bodies, and Trash merges cultural sociology with a commodity chain analysis by following Mardi Gras beads to their origins. Beginning with Bourbon Street of New Orleans, this book moves to the grim factories in the tax-free economic zone of rural Fuzhou, China. Beads, Bodies, and Trash will increase students’ capacity to think critically about and question everyday objects that circulate around the globe: where do objects come from, how do they emerge, where do they end up, what are their properties, what assemblages do they form, and what are the consequences (both beneficial and harmful) of those properties on the environment and human bodies? This book also asks students to confront how the beads can contradictorily be implicated in fun, sexist, unequal, and toxic relationships of production, consumption, and disposal. With a companion documentary, Mardi Gras Made in China, this book introduces students to recording technologies as possible research tools.
Download or read book Beads of Healing written by Kristen E. Vincent and published by Upper Room Books. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healing from trauma begins with the courageous act of telling your story. Yet many survivors of trauma are afraid to tell anyone about their deeply painful and personal experience(s). Trauma survivors often feel shame, guilt, fear, and anger. They may also carry deep spiritual wounds, such as feeling abandoned or punished by God. They may wonder how they can ever trust God. In Beads of Healing, Kristen Vincent shares her story of childhood trauma and how she eventually found God’s peace, healing, and wholeness. She tells how, over 35 years after the trauma, she encountered God as never before in the presence of a Christian community. In this setting where she felt safe and loved, and through the help of spiritual practices like scripture reading, prayer, group sharing, and reflection, she finally found the peace she had been seeking since age 7. Vincent models how to name feelings of grief, anger, abandonment, shame, and fear. She gives readers ideas for ways to use prayer beads as a safe way to enter conversations with God, to talk honestly with their Creator, and open themselves to God’s love. This powerful story of one woman’s journey to spiritual healing offers hope for all trauma survivors, as well as those who have experienced loss, hurt, or other spiritual wounds. Each chapter includes a scripture passage that supports the chapter theme truth-telling (the author talks about the chapter theme from her perspective) reflection questions a prayer bead experience a listening focus (a line to repeat with your prayer beads) an opportunity to check in with yourself before moving forward NOTE: The author recommends that readers study this book with someone: a therapist, pastor, spiritual director, or support group. Beads of Healing features a Leader’s Guide with an outline for 16 sessions, links to instructions for making prayer beads, and a guide to using prayer beads.
