New Publication for Crafters

September 6, 2015

Earlier this year, I received a copy of this book “The Crafter’s Guide to Patterns”. It’s written by Jessica Swift, a talented artist and pattern designer from Portland, Oregon USA.

I’m truly honored to be a part of this amazing DIY book and actually I could learn tremendously from the wide variety of ways to approach when designing patterns. It’s just full of interesting ideas and basic methods you could apply from today.

Although I’m sort of shifting towards knitting and have not been designing a lot of surface patterns recently, this book makes me want to work on it again.

The book features…
Sourcing inspiration
Colour
Patten and layout types
Making patterns
Printing on fabric, paper, stationary and boxes
…and much much more.

If you are a crafter or just interested in making patterns, or want to decorate home with your original patterns I’m sure you’ll love this Jessica’s publication which gives you a lot of inspiration and adds some fresh touch to whatever you design.

Thank you Jessica for including my work in this book.
