Back Cover Information

Create amazing surfaces with Paper, Metal & Stitch

Inside Paper, Metal & Stitch, you'll find lots of new ideas and innovative methods for working with paper and metal, from melting techniques for embossing powders to using paper with heat-reactive threads. The stunning four-color photos and clear illustrations make this book candy for the eyes and food for creativity.

  • Innovative techniques for forming, manipulating, coloring, and stitching both purchased and handmade papers.
  • Coloring and stitching metal shim, glittering metal meshes, wires and coils, beads and foils, and recycled domestic metals.
  • Putting it all together: combining paper, metal, and stitch plus other media to make stunning textiles.
  • Beautifully illustrated with over a hundred color photographs, plus clear diagrams and detailed step-by-step instructions.
  • Stitch is the ultimate enhancer, and all you need is enthusiasm and a sewing machine.
