Synopsis
This book is not concerned with how to make textiles, but with the creative use to which they can be put. The textiles themselves are of the least sophisticated kind – they even include string and sacking – but the results achieved from hem are varied and imaginative. These results take the form of abstract patterns, animals, toys and decorations. As with the other books in the series, the aim is to stimulate by example rather than to provide a series of do-it-yourself instructions to be mechanically copied. The possibilities which come into view not only stir the powers of design and creation, but give the reader a feeling for the materials and methods of one of mankind’s most ancient crafts. There are over 150 monochrome and color illustrations, many of them devoted to children’s work. It is the illustrations, rather than the brief written text, which provide the raison d’etre for this most attractive book.
