Weave With Words

Using Inlay to Create Text in Woven Cloth

Scott Norris

Description

Add words to your weavings! Learn to plan, design and weave letters, words and phrases to enhance and personalize any work.

Engaging instructions and how-to illustrations teach intermediate and advanced weavers to add text to cloth by using the familiar inlay technique in new ways. It’s the first book to detail this skill set, enabling weavers to accurately create beautiful lettering to personalize any project and add new layers of meaning.

Features include:

  • Detailed, step-by-step instruction in the inlay technique and applying it to the alphabet
  • How to design and draft patterns to create any sizes, shapes and combinations of clear, beautiful text
  • Six ready-to-weave text designs with nine “try-it” weaving projects provide guided practice and learning
  • Projects are heirloom-quality, practical household items such as placemats, napkins, dish towels and pillows
  • Projects are weaver-friendly: sized to be economical in materials expense
  • Includes drafts for two complete alphabets (one roman and one script), jump-starting weavers’ “writing” possibilities
