Description
Description
Paper artist Helen Hiebert shares unique paper weaving projects with step-by-step instructions and inspirational prompts for developing a daily practice. Combining fiber art and paper craft techniques, paper weaving is accessible, sustainable, and fun. Each project in the book includes a prompt, a technique, step-by-step instructions with photographs, and examples that will inspire readers to repurpose, recycle, and reuse papers they may already have, like maps, postcards, holiday cards, or journals. And, because it does not require specialized equipment like a loom, paper weaving really is for everyone. Prompts and thoughtful questions are designed to help readers find their own creative path. Inspiring profiles and stories run throughout the book, highlighting a range of contemporary paper weaving artists.
