3.0 out of 5 stars condensed version of a better book, June 22, 2003

This review is from: Color & Design on Fabric: Paint, Dye, Stitch, Print (Singer Design Series) (Paperback)

This Singer series book is quite nice. However, it turns out to be a shorter version of another book, Exploring Textile Arts, published two years later by the same publisher. Nowhere does either book indicate this relationship, but the text and illustrations for the various techniques described are identical. Buy one or the other, but not both!

This review is from: Color & Design on Fabric: Paint, Dye, Stitch, Print (Singer Design Series) (Paperback)

The variety of fabric and paint techniques inside this book were numerous. As an artist who works with both fabrics and paint; as well as various other media I was very impressed and pleased. The book features step by step instructions; great illustrations and photography. All in all a beautiful and very useful tool for an artist; home decorator; fashion decorator; designer; fiber art major; textile artist; and anyone fascinated by creating cool works of art or fashion!
