The Art of Wire Free Patterns
Was just floating around on the internet looking for new books to buy and came across this one :
The Art of Wire: Creative Techniques for Designer Jewelry
It looks quite good and might revive my wireworking which I haven't done much of for years while I discovered seed beading :)
Anyhow - found some free bonus projects for you to try :)
