Just in from Marilee. A call for book authors.

Kalmbach publishes many types of beading and jewelry books (among many other topics) and they are searching for new designers. Learn more about it. I encourage all of our talented designers to participate. https://store.jewelrymakingmagazines.com/

And at their website, they offer downloads of some tatting patterns, beaded, of course! https://store.jewelrymakingmagazines.com/search?q=tatting
And one pattern is by our own Nina Libin! Wow.

The pdf link reference is not live so, email Andrea at amoser@kalmbach.com

Will your specialty make a good book topic? Have you ever considered submitting a jewelry book proposal? Or would you just like to know more about what's involved in making a how‑to book?

Here's your chance to ask questions of the editorial team from Kalmbach Books. If you'd like to have a one‑on‑one meeting with an editor to discuss a book query or proposal, you may set up a short appointment during the week of the show. Please email amoser@kalmbach.com or call 262-796-8776, x580, by May 15th for available time slots.

Our customers are jewelry makers interested in learning a range of techniques, from stitching to wirework to knotting. Download a PDF of our proposal guidelines here for more information about our publishing program.

Please feel free to extend this invitation to other artists and teachers you think might be wonderful potential authors as well.

Thanks, and we hope to see you at the show!
