Book Reviews of The Art of Manipulating Fabric
Book Review: Very good book
Summary: 4 Stars
It has a very nice variety of techniques for making that piece of fabric "something else". There are more techniques out there that haven't been included in the book, but it's not an encyclopedia, just one book. I don't give it 5 stars because the photographs are quite small, and sometimes insufficient, but overall the book is useful an interesting.Book Review: Huge Range of Techniques
Summary: 5 Stars
A wonderful reference. A wide variety of skills. I've been frustrated in the past by a book mentioning a similar skill without giving any more than a name leaving me to search other books if I'm interested. Or worse just vague discriptions with no names or even a paragraph.
This solves that and gets your imagination working.
Book Review: making texture with fabric
Summary: 5 Stars
The best and most comprehensive book for creating texture in fabric. This book shows you many ways to manipulate fabric. I am an experienced sewer and find the instructions very understandable. There really cant be many more ways, than shown here, to manipulate fabric in a pleasing manner for any type of sewing. An excellent book.Book Review: Amazing ways to manipulate fabric!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have yet to make a project from the instructions in this book, however I have read through the entire thing and find the instructions easy to understand, the pictures clear and easy to see, and the finished projects are really beautiful works of art. I hope to use these techniques in some costumes I'm making in the next year.Book Review: Not like any book in my library!
Summary: 5 Stars
I first found out about this book a few years ago - kept it in my head and FINALLY purchased. I'd come across quite a few techniques in my travels, but the book just lays everything out so succinctly. If you're even considering this book - BUY IT. It's a wealth of information for those who sew.
