This superb book draws on highlights from the V&A's fabulous collections of woven, printed and embroidered textiles and their designs.

They show the amazing creative abilities of professional and amateur designers over three centuries. International experts introduce each period and the textiles produced in it. They discuss technical and artistic innovations and provide an invaluable reading list, glossary of terms and biographies of the chief figures of the era.
