Also in this series:

Great pictures and directions for very unique sculpture. I have tried the guided direction (easy to follow) and done a few pieces of my own,... but have found the pieces are very DELICATE. The guided structures can be adapted to different mediums. I love a good challenge and this is a media that will take practice and decepline. BUT I LOVE EDWARDS BOOK and her work is beautiful and I so like it when someone shares some beautiful works of Art that is creative and inspirational !

This is a very well written and photographed book. The focus is wire sculpture, fabric (some waxed) and all sorts of bits to embellish the created pieces. It is very comprehensive with clear instructions. Lots of encouragement and thoughts on creativity included!

Not worth the price. This is mostly a coffee table book of the artist's completed work. There are 128 pages however there are only six (6) projects with instructions. The book includes: 6 pages of wire bending techniques 2 pages of how to use a wax mixture to apply fabric to the wire sculptures 3 pages of instructions re: hand stitching/embroidery I do not see a recipe or measurements of the proportions of paraffin wax to use with the bee's wax, and the project instructions refer to "packs" of wire but do not state the total number of wire pieces needed to complete a project.

This book limits itself to the authors technique which is not fully explained. They all look very much alike. It’s basically one idea. It’s a cute idea but the cover photo says it all

Wish that there had been more pages available to review prior to purchasing. There are an awful lot of projects which have to do with doll heads which is nothing I'm interested in. That said, there is some pretty solid info on the basic techniques to make the book worth while.

Twice I have bought this book, and twice it was "borrowed" by students and not returned, well I actually said to keep the copies as they loved them so much. This time, I am buying for my own library, as it is much too good not to have. There are few books out there that touch the subject of sculptural, 3D textile art, even now, and those that do tend to be very pseudo intellectual. I say this as someone with an MA in the subject, who has taught on a degree course, and maybe this sounds strange for me to say, but they often take the joy of the subject in their bid to be seen as "serious" art. Not so here, this is serious art, but has that joyful edge to it as well, making it aproachable to the hobbyist as well as the professional, but encouraging much design thought along the way too. This book is really encouraging of your own creativity, so much so that it has you itching to find some materials and get on with things. A real triumph of a little book, so well written and thought out, every student of creative textiles should have a copy.

I love to work sculpturally and this book caught my eye. Very practical and engaging. so many ideas, and I am already planning some teacups to make out of wire... I normally cover it with beautiful Chinese printed paper - but fabric works as well.

Sehr empfehlenswert, tolle, ausgewöhnliche Ideen, die Lust zum Nachmachen machen

In mijn pakket - product zoals omschreven. Nog niet gelezen.

There's nothing worth here. Maybe it was worth buying before the internet. But the most important things, in how to realize some of the interesting designs, is incredibly lacking.
