A comprehensive how-to reference that teaches wet textile surface design techniques for making custom cloth. Learn surface design for textiles, to create rich and personally expressive fabric surfaces. Projects by expert Susan Brandeis (author of the bestselling The Intentional Thread) help a range of levels--beginners to relatively experienced studio practitioners--experiment with each method. • Covers wet techniques in detail: application and layering of textile dyes, pigments, and chemicals to add color, pattern, and images • Dry techniques will be covered in a future volume: how to combine these handmade fabrics using cutting, piecing, layering, building, and embellishing • What's the "Cumulative Cloth"? A single cloth that readers add to with each chapter's techniques, eventually creating a piece of art. • Serves as a go-to reference to check technical procedures and safety guidelines (many methods and ingredients require caution)
