Excellent resource for artists

This book shows you how to create all those special effects you've seen on artist's creations from fabric. It's very detailed and easy to understand. Full of ideas and instructions. This is how to turn your crafts project into true art. A great reference for anyone working with fabric.

Excellent overview of a variety of embellishment techniques!

This new book gives you detailed descriptions of fabric manipulation and embellishment techniques -- ranging from velvet embossing, couching, and even some different approaches using a wire cooling rack!! Great inspirational photos of works from "fabric artists" to get the thought process working for you. The usual Singer photos are an asset, and clear instructions make the techniques possible/achieveable for anyone.
