Learn surface design for textiles, to create rich and personally expressive fabric surfaces. Projects by expert Susan Brandeis (author of the bestselling The Intentional Thread) help a range of levels--from beginners to experts--experiment with each method. - Covers wet techniques in detail: application and layering of textile dyes, pigments, and chemicals to add color, pattern, and image. - Dry techniques will be covered in a future volume: how to combine designed fabrics using cutting, piecing, layering, building, and embellishment. - What's the "Cumulative Cloth"? A single cloth that readers add to with each chapter's techniques, eventually creating a piece of art. - Serves as a go-to reference to check technical procedures and safety guidelines (many methods and ingredients require caution). - Praise for the author's previous book: "Brandeis takes us on a journey into the expressive nature of stitch . . . reveals how to manipulate stitches much like an artist might a pencil or paintbrush." --Embroidery Magazine
