Book Crazy

Before Christmas I went on line and made a wish list on Amazon.

There were a few books I have seen around that I wanted to buy through recommendations and they seemed to be popping up on blogs. 
I seem to always have a wishlist on Amazon.  I like to ponder on the decision of buying for a little while.
( You wouldn't want to spend all your money on books and miss out of a new fabric range arriving.)

So I was glad to finally decide to get them...All five in one day. 


I have only flicked though each book but have already found some great ideas in them and am a wee bit excited especially about one.    Printing by Hand.



This was one of my plans for the year...I wanted to try my hand at some screen printing for myself.  A bit of fun but when I will get it done, I do not know.  It has some great ideas in it with some little patterns to try myself.  I can't wait.


I haven't looked though this yet but although very technical, I think there will be much to learn from it.

  6. Cool! Go off and learn! I can't wait to see what you print. If you get into it, we'd love for you to do a workshop at MQG Ireland retreat (hint...hint...)

  9. Have you checked out bookdepository.co.uk - often cheaper than Amazon because they have free delivery.
