Synopsis

The fabric and craft world is swimming in miles and miles of beautiful ribbons, with limitless choices of color, style, width, and purpose. Ribbon Artistry offers the creative artist fresh new ideas for using these ribbons to their fullest potential. The book begins with a large chapter on ribbon-crafting techniques and basics. Each technique is shown step-by-step, giving the beginner a valuable learning tool and the experienced ribbon crafter a quick reference guide. Techniques include silk ribbon embroidery, braiding, pleating, and folding

ribbons, as well as basics for making fabulous ribbon flowers. The book also offers over fifteen unique and inviting projects for incorporating ribbonwork into various creative endeavors, including giftmaking, clothing, accessories and home décor items. Each stunning project is an original design created specifically for this book by a professional ribbon artist. The experience and creative flair of each artist sets her work apart from the others so that no two projects have the same style. Each project is taught step-by-step, with full-color photos that stimulate the imagination and ensure success. Projects include clothing embellishments, flower corsages, pillows, lampshades, bedding and more. Decorating with ribbons is one of the easiest ways to transform an ordinary item into a one-of-a-kind creation. With Ribbon Artistry both beginners and experienced ribbon crafters will find new ideas to expand their skills.
