Spunbonded Textile and Stitch

Spunbonded Textile and Stitch is an inspiring English-language book for anyone who wants to explore spunbonded textiles and new textile effects. It shows you how materials such as Lutradur, Evolon, Tyvek and heat-distressable tissue can create striking results that are hard to achieve with traditional fibres. Inside, you’ll find a wide mix of techniques, from painting, printing and dyeing to heating, fusing, stamping, foiling, image transfer and embroidery. Clear step-by-step guidance helps you work with the materials confidently, so you can move from inspiration to finished pieces in your own textile art projects. The spunbonded textiles featured are strong, flexible non-wovens made from polyester, yet they still feel soft and are especially suited to textile art, mixed media and experimental work. This book encourages you to play with structure, colour and surface, while giving you practical ideas for innovative outcomes. If you’re looking for a creative reference full of textile techniques and inspiration, Spunbonded Textile and Stitch is a valuable addition to your shelf.
