Reseña del libro "Artistic Surface Design: In and On Fabrics"
Artistic Surface Design: An Introduction to the Artistic Possibilities of Surface Design This book is an overview of the many techniques available, not an in-depth study of any one design technique. It is written for people to explore many possibilities in surface design on/in fabric before investing in any of the numerous books, publications, and blogs available on individual techniques. Elements of Surface Design includes clearly written directions with photo illustrations for all levels to understand, follow, and enjoy results. Topics covered include beadwork, decorative cords, kumihimo, twisted cords, fringe, fringe with lace, lace fine edge finish, lace shaping, lace appliqué, brooch design, pleating, pleats on a curve, contortion pleating, hemming, mixed-media, ribbon weaving, 3D bias fabric, tassel making by machine, zippers: for décor, with exposed teeth, for pockets, and various product techniques. Jenny Haskins' Technology and Techniques are added as a bonus with the blessing of the famous Australian embroidered quilt designer, educator, and editor.
