The Cumulative Cloth, Wet Techniques - A Guide to Fabric Color, Pattern, Construction, and Embellishment
Author(s): Susan Brandeis
Learn surface design for textiles, to create rich and personally expressive fabric surfaces. Projects by expert Susan Brandeis (author of the bestselling The Intentional Thread) help a range of levels--from beginners to experts--experiment with each method.
- Covers wet techniques in detail: application and layering of textile dyes, pigments, and chemicals to add color, pattern, and image.
- Dry techniques will be covered in a future volume: how to combine designed fabrics using cutting, piecing, layering, building, and embellishment.
- What's the "Cumulative Cloth"? A single cloth that readers add to with each chapter's techniques, eventually creating a piece of art.
- Serves as a go-to reference to check technical procedures and safety guidelines (many methods and ingredients require caution).
- Praise for the author's previous book: "Brandeis takes us on a journey into the expressive nature of stitch . . . reveals how to manipulate stitches much like an artist might a pencil or paintbrush." --Embroidery Magazine
