In this visually stunning book, Moy Mackay reveals how you too can create beautiful pictures using felt.
Characterised by her wonderful use of colour, Moy’s work is breathtaking and includes still-lifes, animals and landscapes inspired by the dramatic scenery of the Scottish Borders where she lives and works. Moy takes you through every step of the process, including the materials and tools you need, the feltmaking
process itself (which is easier than you’d imagine), and how to put together four fabulous felt paintings of your own. There is guidance on stitching, including both hand- and machine-stitching, as well as how to use colour and
introduce texture in the form of different fibres and threads.
There are numerous examples of Moy’s work through the book, and by the end you will not fail to be inspired to create gorgeous felt paintings of your own. • A vibrant introduction to producing colourful pictures in felt
• Covers the basic techniques through clear, step-by-step instructions and photographs
• Four fabulous projects plus numerous examples of the author’s work throughout
