NEW BOOK: Hook Prod Punch Tuft.

 

From tradition to contemporary, this is a book that encourages you to discover or rediscover the traditions of the craft of rag rugs. This most eco-friendly of crafts uses and reuses a range of resources, and in Lynne Stein's book, the leading textile artist shows 20 step-by-step practical guides on how to produce anything from rugs to bags, from cushions to hanging artwork.

A great book for those who need a project, need a creative outlet, and yet want to make as little impact on the environment as possible. Another great and practical title from Herbert Press.
