A propos de cet article

"First U.S. Edition" on the copyright page of this lavishly illustrated "how to" book by British fabric artist Janet Bolton. The hardcover book is in near fine condition, marred only by a small faint stain on the title page where a former owner label was neatly removed. Binding is tight and square, with no reading crease in the spine. The red cloth covered boards are unmarked, unfaded and unworn, with bright gilt titles on the spine. Pages are unmarked and unworn. The unclipped dust jacket is in fine condition: whole, unfaded, unmarked and unworn. As with all Space Age Book purchases, I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its proud new owner in the same condition as my description. Note: shipment outside the USA will require additional postage for this heavy (2 pound) book.

Synopsis

Book by Bolton Janet

Présentation de l'éditeur

Using colorful fabric scraps as your canvas, and paints, needles and threads for brushes, author-artist Janet Bolton shows you how to compose beautiful works of patchwork fold art.  Every fascinating step of picture making is covered, with plenty of watercolor illustrations and eye-catching examples of Janet's extraordinary work to inspire you.  Readers can put their new skills to practice with a workshop at the end of each chapter.  From fabric selection and composition, to exciting techniques for free-hand cutting and stitching, to choosing the perfect finishing touches and frame, she makes the entire process seem easy.
Full-size templates are provided allowing the reader to reproduce the wonderfully charming floral still life and farmyard schemes.  Those who prefer to use their imagination to create completely original pictures will find all the guidance, inspiration and helpful hints they need.
