Felt to Stitch: Creative Felting for Textile Artists

Rate this book
Versatile and easy to make, felt provides an ideal base for surface embellishment. This inspirational guide explores the possibilities, from creating your own from scratch, to selecting unusual dye combinations, and producing three-dimensional pieces. Using the sample projects that illustrate the main techniques, both beginning and advanced fiber artists will soon be experimenting with color, line, shape, pattern, and texture. Special sections on Japanese Shibori (knotting and dyeing the surface) and Nuno (combining felt with other materials to create rich and exciting fabric surfaces) make this a must-have for all fiber artists.

Szépen illusztrált album az alapvető technikákról. A leírások pontosak, a magyarázó ábrák jól használhatóak. Sok érdekes információ és hasznosítható tapasztalat fért bele ebbe a karcsú kötetbe. Nem a teljességre törekvés, hanem a különböző megoldások és irányzatok ismertetése volt a cél. Sokoldalúan használja a hímzést, az öltés- és tűzésfajtákat a nemezek díszítésére.

Great tips and projects. Very informational, the directions are easy to follow. The last section briefly goes over needle felting - but this is mainly about wet felting and stitching. Happy Felting!
