  The low-cost craft of fabric sculpture recylces discarded fabric to create attractive figurines and itmes for the home. Readers can use empty wahing-up liquid bottles or simple wire armatures as the framework for a range of sculptures, from choirboys and balloon-sellers to costumed woodland animals. Step-by-step photographs show how to make the figurines, clothe them in draped fabric stiffened with PVA adhesive and spray-paint them. There are even ideas for decorative accessories for the home, such as plaited wreaths, candlesticks and calico cabbages.
