Reviews
For Bolton, scraps of fabric are imbued with memories capable of inspiring creativity and provoking imaginative musings. The images she creates with patchwork have a charm far greater than the basic craft techniques utilized, and although art school trained, Bolton retains a simplicity associated with self-taught artists. Many of the pieces shown here have the appeal and freshness of true folk art, so even though Bolton discusses elements of design throughout the text, a beginner need not be intimidated. All in all, this is a delightful primer that should interest a range of crafters coming from either a needlework or a painting orientation. Colorful illustrations complement Bolton's instructions on both stitchery and arranging motifs in attractive compositions. Alice Joyce

Seller: Space Age Books LLC, Conroe, TX, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. "First U.S. Edition" on the copyright page of this lavishly illustrated "how to" book by British fabric artist Janet Bolton. The hardcover book is in near fine condition, marred only by a small faint stain on the title page where a former owner label was neatly removed. Binding is tight and square, with no reading crease in the spine. The red cloth covered boards are unmarked, unfaded and unworn, with bright gilt titles on the spine. Pages are unmarked and unworn. The unclipped dust jacket is in fine condition: whole, unfaded, unmarked and unworn. As with all Space Age Book purchases, I will ship this book in a moisture proof zip-loc bag, padded in bubble wrap, inside a sturdy box to assure it reaches its proud new owner in the same condition as my description. Note: shipment outside the USA will require additional postage for this heavy (2 pound) book. Seller Inventory # 000881
