About Connecting Art to Stitch from SandraMeech.com - 

In this book the essential connection between the world of fine art and contemporary textiles is explored.  

15 ‘Art Classes’ make that link between line and stitch, watercolour overlay and applique, acrylics and mixed media, constantly allowing the textile student to get back to art basics as a way forward in their own textile work.

Beautifully illustrated with a gallery of international textile and fine artists, this is another ‘must have’ book for the fibreart enthusiast.
