5.0 out of 5 stars Any college-level arts collection strong in fabric art - as well as many a needlework library - needs this definitive guide, September 15, 2009
Irene Emery's construction of a comprehensive system of terminology for describing fabrics, The Primary Structures of Fabrics, was recognized as a classic on the first publication of The Primary Structures of Fabrics back in 1966. It is based on years of study of fabrics produced both by hand and by machine, and offers a solid survey of the structural makeup of fabrics and their pieces. Any college-level arts collection strong in fabric art - as well as many a needlework library - needs this definitive guide.
