Okay but could have been better
The first thing that I noticed about this book is it had a lot of pictures and not alot of info on how to airbrush t-shirts. However I did find the book useful in creating new designs and to know what needed to be done and in what order. Over all it is a good book to get you exited about airbrushing on textiles but doesn't give you enough information on on to do it. ... Read more

If you love textile art you will like this....
As someone who designs her won clothes and loves making a variety of textile art I love this book as well as Textile Dyeing: The Step-By-Step Guide.Simply because each book shows that one need not rely on plain fabric, but with some simple know how you can transform the simplest piece of cloth into a work of art.I especially like taking rubber stamps and with a simple clothes iron, and some velvet, making beautiful material rich with images of nature.

Most complete guide on coloring & decorating fabric
This is the most complete guide I have found on coloring & decorating all types of fabric. It is in full-color & packed with many detailed examples. The book starts out with a general history & information on fabrics. Excellent.
Carolyn Dahl's "Transforming Fabric" is a clearly superior reference volume, and one which reflects the author's dedication to artistry in every aspect of its pages.Most fundamentally,"Transforming Fabric" is itself a work of art, which even afabric-neophyte will enjoy browsing through to gaze at the richly colorfulphotographs and illustrations.For anyone interested in the fabric arts,this book is a must-buy! ...

A good book, useful for medievalists!
A modern book with information that can be used for period dyeing (for medievalists) in Irish and Scottish styles. It recommends thoroughly modern mordants (dye color fixatives) though there is some reference to ammonia(period by way of urine) and alum (which may or may not have been earlyperiod, but, was at least medieval). It discusses various native andimported plants, traditional ways to dye with them, and how to get specificcolor variations. Includes bits of folklore about the plants and dyes,regional customs, etc. Read more
