5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed instructions for 12 projects, January 30, 2000
This review is from: Temari Treasures: Japanese Thread Balls and More (Paperback)
This book brings the traditional Japanese art of Temari, decorative balls wrapped with thread, within the realm of any craftsperson. Styrofoam balls and materials available in any fabric shop are all you will need.

While some practice and patience are required, the detailed step-by-step instructions, wonderful diagrams and consistent terminology will guide you to success. Using pins to mark the pattern and align the threads is the key.

Twelve complete projects are taken from start to finish. These include a variety of geometric patterns and my favorites, the beautiful floral patterns. For variety there is a spinning top ornament plus tassels that can be added.

There is a great color photo gallery showing off the fabulous color and detail that can be achieved with these projects. Making these Temari will give you a sense of pride and accomplishment, and heirloom ornaments to treasure.
