Artists whose expertize lie in quite specific areas have provided chapters outlining their particular technique, in some cases describing their method step-by-step, in others writing about the philosophy behind their thought and the motivation for their painting. For the beginner, information is provided in simple exercises for getting to know the medium, followed by in-depth technical information about fixing silk and problem solving as well as advanced projects. There are also chapters dealing with dyestuff, silk the fibre and silk the cloth and its history. Wearable art features strongly throughout and there is a chapter from a creative quilter.
