The Art Of Manipulating Fabric by Colette Wolff (PDF) [Sewing, Pattern making, Quilting, Textile Art] (Size: 40.33 MB)
DescriptionThe possibilities for three-dimensional manipulation of fabric - gathering, pleating, tucking, shirring, and quilting woven materials - are seemingly endless. To describe them all would be to describe the entire history of sewing. In The Art of manipulating Fabric, Colette Wolff has set herself just this task, and she succeeds brilliantly. Working from the simplest possible form - a flat piece of cloth and a threaded needle - she categorizes all major dimensional techniques, show how they are related, and give examples of variations both traditional and modern. The result is an encyclopedia of techniques that resurface, reshape, restructure and reconstruct fabric.
(I found this as an incomplete PDF, so as I had the book to hand (but no scanner!) I took photos of the missing pages and added them. The PDF overall isn't of great quality but is completely legible. This is a great book!) Sharing Widget |
