内容説明
From inspiration and project planning, to her signature hand-manipulated techniques, Lamb leads weavers through the steps of making exquisite bags using folk weaving techniques that evoke modern ideas in brilliant colors and textures. "Woven Treasures" begins with an overview of Lamb's recent bag series, followed by an introduction for the weaver to the process of imaging concepting and planning a woven piece, a technique section of 6 folk weaving tutorials, and project instructions for 8 hand-woven bags. The technique section discusses hand-manipulating weaving techniques with a multi-technique sampler that gives basic instructions for soumak, twining, cut pile, cardweaving, inkle weaving, and plain weave. The projects section explores these techniques in depth with projects using a rigid heddle loom that gain in complexity and opportunity for personalization. Sidebars sprinkled throughout the book include the history of folk weaving techniques, as well as Lamb's signature beaded and stitched embellishment designs. "Woven Treasure"'s bag designs allow weavers an immediate sense of accomplishment, and the finished projects can be used and/or displayed as works of art. Lamb also encourages weavers to use their own imagery and ideas to make their own designs.
