Bibliography.

I have added two reference books to my library this week:

Twinn, J. (2011). Colour in art quilts. London, U.K: Batsford.

“providing quilters with a deeper understanding of how to use colour in their work” this book will prove to be an excellent resource for Part Two on Colour alongside the many other books on colour in my library plus the set texts.

Thittichai, K. (2011). Layered textiles. New surfaces with heat tools, machine and hand stitch. London,  U.K: Batsford.

“layering is a major feature of textile art, essential for creating beautiful and unique surfaces for stitch or further textile work” no excuses now for not providing current work with these two very excellent texts.
