I’ve admired Alisa’s art and worth ethic for several years and have had the pleasure of taking most of her online workshops…I know she worked really hard on this book, and all I can say is it was well worth the wait! This is a great book for beginners and for those with more experience. She keeps the supply list short and, as she does with her workshops, she tries to keep the list of supplies as inexpensive as possible. She is a great instructor, and makes every technique and project very doable with outstanding results. As a bonus, she has included a DVD where she demonstrates some of her techniques up close and personal such as free-motion stitching on her sewing machine.The book is beautiful and filled with lots of colorful pictures and examples…she also includes some patterns for some of the projects.The best part of the book for me is learning how to combine several of the art mediums and techniques that I love using to create my own surface design for fabric. Now I can really create 100% of my own designs!The book is divided into five sections:1. Materials and Tools (lots of pictures and detailed descriptions)2. Color, Pattern, and Inspiration (she takes you by the hand and shows you how she gets inspired and where she gets her ideas)3. Stitching Techniques (she demonstrates not just how to sew on the sewing machine, but how the stitching can add to the overall design and/or project)4. Projects (one dozen projects including bracelets, belts, laptop and phone cases, pillows, aprons, scarf, and hat)Alisa also includes a list of recommended reading and sources for some of the supplies.I had this book on my wishlist since it was listed here at Amazon. It was well worth the wait!

A great book with DVD. Inspiring ideas, well presented. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to inject more creativity into their textile work?

This book is full of inspiration. Burke takes an artist’s approach to her work. She talks about the process, ways to explore and reflect on your work, ideas for journaling and strategies for establishing a practice. There are project ideas as well and the instructions are clear and easy to follow.What I like about Burke’s approach is that is encourages readers to go beyond completing individual projects. Her suggestions about exploring colour, texture and dimension has taken me in new directions.
