Publishers Description: A beautifully illustrated guide to one of the oldest forms of adornment, featuring more than 20 traditional projects and a lavish selection of color photos, artworks, patterns, and charts. Ribbons have long offered an inexpensive way of adding color and interest to the home as well as to gifts and accessories. Since the 19th century, they have been used to embellish a wide array of items, from curtains and lampshades to boxes and sachets. Drawing inspiration from early pieces, Ribboncraft presents more than 20 projects for bedding, furnishings, cushions, accessories, and gifts, with each design fully explained and generously illustrated. The projects are graded according to level of complexity, ranging from small items like pin cushions to the more elaborate use of ribbons on pelmets and tablecloths. Deena Beverleys work has appeared in many magazines; she was previously the in-house stylist for the Conran Design Group. 128 pp 9 x 9 1/2 42 color photos, color artworks, patterns & charts throughout
