This beautiful and inspirational book written by a doyenne of British textile design explores the art of Painting and making patterns on cloth. - Develop your understanding of scale, colour, tonality and the organisation of pattern ideas, alongside suggestions on how to use your finished fabrics.. - Explore the delights of Painting on different fabrics such as cotton, linen, silk and calico/muslin. - Learn how to create your own unique designs using a range of tools and techniques including brushes and potato-cuts, stencils and simple \'kitchen cupboard\' resists.
Beautifully illustrated with Sarah\'s colourful and internationally acclaimed work, her Fabric designs show the comforting rhythm and universal language of pattern.
The beauty is that the pattern doesn\'t have to repeat - there can be just one bird or just one square, if it\'s in the right place.
Everything is unique, the placing of the patterns and colours is in your hands.
Painting straight onto Fabric is a very different experience to designing for digital production.
