THE ART OF FELT
Inspirational Designs,
Textures, and Surfaces
by Francoise Tellier-Loumagne
|
With handmade felted fabrics, subtle variations in color, texture, and volume can be achieved: threads and fibers merge almost magically to form new motifs that can then be enlivened by embroidered or crocheted details. Françoise Tellier-Loumagne takes an original approach to the world of feltmaking, finding your felt design inspiration in calm morning skies, spectacular sunsets, and brilliant fireworks displays. The book includes basic techniques that can be used to create felted fabrics from scratch, such as needle-felting, and tufting, along with many imaginative ideas for ready-made felt. With a little artistic guidance, clouds across the moon can be turned into an eye-catching necklace, or a stormy sky may inspire a striking scarf or cushion cover. Illustrated with hundreds of images, this book will be a treasure trove for anyone interested in original textile design.
