Design and Practice for Printed Textiles

By Andrea McNamara and Patrick Snelling

Book Overview

This book is a practical and comprehensive guide to designing and printing fabrics. It describes the process of design from the development of ideas using mark-making techniques through to the production of printed fabric, and shows how to form patterns and make designs repeat so that they can be printed by hand. Designed for students and other interested craftspeople, the book includes useful advice on setting up a print workshop, a discussion of health and safety issues, and a glossary.
