Synopsis

Centred on hand-printing for the home, this beginner’s handbook presents 35 projects for practical homewares, bags and gifts, supported by illustrated, step-by-step instructions. It begins with making and using stamps, with projects such as a leafy lampshade, honeycomb bunting and an envelope clutch bag.

Further chapters explore stencils and screen-printing for items including giant floor cushions, a boxy weekender bag and a set of nesting tables, before moving on to techniques such as ceramic and photo transfer and sun printing for storage pots, a patchwork quilt and an everyday tote bag. Templates for print motifs and sewing projects are included at the back, making it well suited to readers looking for guided, technique-led craft projects.
