The Surface Designer's Handbook

If you work with textiles and fibers and want only one reference book - this would be it. Beautifully photographed on high quality paper and spiral bound, this will become your "manual" and source of inspiration for trying new things and creating complex multi-layered "art fabrics".

Many dyes with recipes and techniques are thoroughly covered, including the fiber reactive MX dyes, as well as printing, discharging, devore, stamping, stenciling, resists, fabric paints and embellishments. Lots of technical info such as preparing fabric, stock solutions, thickening, steaming and color mixing. The glossary describes the what, where, when, and why's of all those things you're told to use but don't know how.

An excellent all purpose textile how-to book!
