Felt to Stitch:
Creative Felting for Textile Artists
by Sheila Smith
|
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.
