A hardcover in fine condition throughout. The cloth boards are unmarked and pleasant to the touch, with no wear to the corners or spine, and the binding remains tight and square. Pages are clean and unmarked, appearing unread. First published in the United Kingdom in 2015 by Batsford, an imprint of Pavilion Books. In Slow Stitch: Mindful and Contemplative Textile Art, Claire Wellesley-Smith offers a thoughtful, unhurried approach to textile art, exploring simple stitching techniques rooted in traditional practice, the reuse and reinvention of materials, and a deliberately limited toolkit. Richly illustrated throughout with richly textured photography of stitched and dyed textiles, the book speaks to those drawn to a more contemplative, sustainable relationship with their craft. Ships within Canada. International orders welcome through AbeBooks.
