An
excerpt:
"It is not at all surprising that the vogue of making beaded bags
is so great, when one can realize the possibility of creating things of
exquisite beauty with a few beads and some silk thread...With this little book
as a guide it is merely a pleasant divergence to blend sparkling beads with
silk, and also enables one to possess that beautiful adjunct that is so
necessary to complete Milady's costume..."
