Media Reviews

July 2006

Wow! This book has introduced me to a craft I never even knew existed and I would just like to say I am already addicted. Ann Cox, the author of the book is a teacher of silk ribbon embroidery at a college and often gives talks to clubs and guilds, so it is no wonder that her enthusiasm draws you into this book. Works of art are accomplished by clever knots and splashes of paint which really bring things such as the silk ribbon flowers to life. I have already made a few greetings cards using these techniques and the making of little figures I found fascinating. This book is sure to interest any craft addict!
