Few print technique books present themselves in such a straightforward, accessible manner as this work by Hinchcliffe and Barber, both professional printers of home furnishing accessories. The explanations of the potato, block, and silk-screen printing of textiles and paper and the resist dyeing of textiles could use more step-by-step instructions, but there is enough information to let amateurs get started printing. For libraries where there is an interest in this type of craft.Book Details
