Riassunto

Design one-of-a-kind art cloth for your favorite quilting, sewing, home décor, and garment projects! This comprehensive guide to water-based resist dyeing techniques makes the process easy to learn (and even more fun to play with) using textile artist Lisa Kerpoe’s test-driven instructions for creating depth on a flat surface. Create dimensional effects with ingredients like oatmeal, sugar, and soy wax—mix and match 8 resists with 7 application techniques for endless possibilities. Paint, stamp, stencil, splatter, layer…and come away with soft, touchable fabric. Materials for non-toxic resists are easy to find, starting with your kitchen cupboards!

Recensione

Artist Lisa Kerpoe's latest book is a comprehensive look at using eight different resists to create unique fabric and surface design. Her easygoing style will encourage readers to approach the techniques with a sense of play as they enjoy the serendipity. Each chapter provides complete instruction so readers can jump to the technique that appeals to them without reading from cover to cover, although starting with the first two chapters would be helpful for beginners. This book is brimming with photos of supplies, process, and inspiring fabric samples. Ending with an opulent gallery of work by Lisa and others, a troubleshooting guide, and resources list, this book is a top-notch guide for surface designers. --Kristine Lundblad, Quilting Arts Magazine: 08/01/12
