Sarah Lawrence used mixed media, stitching and numerous innovative techniques to produce stunning textile art with the accent on shimmer and shine. Step by step photographs and clear instructions show how to make fabric from brown paper or by layering interlining with metal leaf, then demonstrate gilding techniques, using mica, hot fusing adhesives and metal, various colouring techniques, hand and machine stitching, free machine embroidery and creating unique embellishments. Beautiful finished pieces show the intricate, rich, bright and shiny results of the techniques used in various combinations, and then there are eleven sumptuous projects with full captions on the techniques used to produce them.
