Cindy Wimmer wrote the best new jewelry-design book, The Missing Link. She held a Blog Hop Tour just a couple of weeks ago. I was very careful NOT to leave comments, as I already have the book! But, Christine Damm wrote the most lovely blog post about her friendship with Cindy, that I caved...left a comment...and I WON! Thank you, Christine and Cindy!
The Book

| (Source - www.cindywimmer.com) |
There are 30 different link designs, categorized for every level of wire work - from simple, to more complex. I would be remiss in not mentioning the stunning designs made with those links...swoon!
Here is just a small sampling of the links that I have made.
