1: So easy
It was a pleasure to receive this book in the mail. Right from the first page it was easy to follow, interesting, and the pictures are beautiful and motivating. I am looking forward to teaching my little girls from this book.

2: Excellent book for beginner!
I bought this book because it's full of information about printing on fabric.Can't wait to start.I have found everything in one place.

3: Everything you ever wanted to know about hand printing.
This book turned out to be even more helpful and inspiring than I had hoped for. It answered many questions relating to different varieties of simple hand printing techniques such as: which inks, papers, and fabrics are best suited for each project; how to create stencils; how to transfer designs, how to repeat a pattern, how to work with screens, and on and on. There are many color photos showing step-by-step procedures. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. A lot of the printing projects are done on simple, natural fabrics like linen and muslin.
The book itself is a spiral-bound, soft-cover book within a hard cover shell. This allows you to lay the pages flat so that you can look at them hands-free as you work.
I love this book. I was already familiar with many types of printing such as linoleum and gocco, but I still learned a great deal. So I would have to say this book is for novices and experienced alike.
I guarantee you that you will come away from this book inspired and ready to create.
