Resilient Stitch: Wellbeing and Connection in Textile Art - Claire Wellesley-smith

Descriere Resilient Stitch: Wellbeing and Connection in Textile Art - Claire Wellesley-smith

\nFollowing on from her textile hit Slow Stitch, author Claire Wellesley-Smith considers the importance of connection and ideas around wellbeing when using textiles for individuals and communities. \nResilient Stitch covers practical ideas around thinking-through-making, using resonant materials, and extending the life of pieces using traditional and nontraditional methods. Contemporary textile artists using these themes in their work are featured alongside personal work from Claire and examples from community-based textile projects. Resilient fabrics that can be manipulated, stressed, withstand tension, and be made anew are recommended throughout the book, as well as techniques such as layering, patching, reinforcing, re-stitching, and mending. It also provides ideas for the inclusion of everyday materials in your work.\n
