Aimed at textile artists and textile designers, 'Print, Pattern and Colour' is a glorious celebration of the potential of printing and repeat patterns on fabric. Packed with accessible but imaginative techniques, it covers :











Monoprinting using sponges, rollers and textured surfaces
Blocks and stencils, both commercially bought and homemade
Screenprinting, including the use of photo-sensitive screens
Using interesting media such as Markal paint sticks, thickened dyes, metallic and pearlescent paints and discharge paste
Developing print ideas on paper before taking them to fabric
Combining print with stitch and fabric manipulation








Beautifully illustrated with sumptuous photographs that show off the author's infectious love of colour, this book contains a wealth of inspiration for using print in embroidery and textiles.
