Fabulous Fabric Project Booklet
In this project booklet, we look at how a number of very different artists have worked with textiles, from printing and quilt-making, to batik and the creation of textile sculptures. We also glance at different dyeing processes, from the use of natural botanical dyes and flower pounding, to the Japanese technique of shibori and tie dye!
