Beginner's Guide to Beading on a Loom
Alexandra Kidd spent her childhood and teenage years in Australia, where her mother owned a craft shop. Her love of beads developed when she started playing with the wonderful assortment of shapes, colours and textures in the bead section and she was soon running four beadwork classes a week. After moving to the UK, she, her mother and brother, started The London Bead Company, with a shop in London which was an immediate success. When she is not working in London, Alexandra visits exhibitions and fairs, and she writes books.
