Synopsis

Folk and traditional design has long shaped the development of textile art and craft, and this book sets those influences in a clear, usable context. Anne Kelly looks across regions including the Far East, America, Scandinavia and the UK, examining established motifs and the techniques associated with them.

Alongside the visual inspiration, readers are guided through step-by-step projects that show how to bring folk elements into personal textile work. Projects span a range of approaches, from jewellery-making to embroidery and appliqué, supported by colour illustrations.
