You can sew and craft your way
around the world by incorporating an international array of
specialty fabrics into your own "Global Eclectic"
style. My second book, Global Expressions, explores the
textile arts of nine regions, and the cultures that created
them. From mola appliqué of Panama to Japanese sashiko
quilting to sadza batik of Zimbabwe to Nigerian adire cloth
and more, learn how and why the fabrics are made
traditionally. Step-by-step instructions, traceable fabric
designs and photos show you how to recreate the fabric
techniques, then apply them to 15 home décor projects.
Detailed appendix features tips for shopping for and caring
for special textiles, fabric sources, craft supply companies
and other resources for creative inspiration. |
