This is a wonderful book. I have loved Priscilla's work for years, even to the point of driving to Thirsk at literally the opposite end of the country for a half-day workshop, years ago when I was able. Those lucky people in the north of England! I used to love her fabric collages on canvas, but this book is about her lovely ethereal textile sculptures, using humble materials and transforming them into the most beautiful works of art. She is a very generous person, detailing every step needed to create these pieces for ourselves, and a bonus is that she is in the UK, so there isn't the usual frustration of not being able to acquire supplies - for the most part. Yet another bonus is that her publisher has not given in to the latest trend of grey text and pale, barely there illustrations, as seems de rigeur in some contemporary textile books. If you are a fan of Priscilla's work, you will not be disappointed. And if you aren't - why aren't you?
