A timeless Resource November 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book covers a variety of techniques, such as stamping, screenprinting, gelatin printing, discharge printing, soy wax batik, and more. Any one of these topics could easily be stretched into its own book. Including them all in one book -- along with gorgeous examples, illustrations, and clear instruction -- makes this a must-have resource for anyone interested in learning how to create their own hand-printed fabric. Rayna has created a timeless book that will provide inspiration for many years to come.

Fun techniques, great instructions and photos September 30, 2008

All work has come to a standstill here now that the mail carrier arrived with Rayna Gillman's new book, "Create your own hand-printed cloth: Stamp, screen & stencil with everyday objects." I am fighting the urge to lock myself in a room away from my kids (they can forage for their own lunch, can't they?) and read the whole thing non-stop. Gillman covers stamping and stenciling with found objects; random screen printing; gelatin plate printing; screen printing with thickened dyes; discharge painting; soy wax batik; and rubbings.
For each technique, there are lots of detailed directions and excellent photos to accompany them. She also provides supply lists (and websites where you can buy the supplies).
Within a week after getting this book, I met with a group of fiber art friends and we played with stamping using found objects, guided by the book. The results were great. This is a book I will really USE. And I can't wait to try more of these techniques.
The best surface design book yet! September 26, 2008
This book is spectacular! Whether you are a visual or verbal learner or any kind in between, Rayna's pictures and explanations make cutting-edge surface design methods approachable and dare I say...fun! This book is a must-have.
