"This volume demonstrates the techniques for the three-dimensional manipulation of fabric. It categorizes the techniques showing how they are related, giving examples of both modern and traditional variations. This collection of information on the techniques seamsters and seamstresses have used since fabric was invented, to change the surface of an initially flat textile. The author describes the techniques of fabric manipulation one-by-one, cataloging its unique features, separating the technique from end product associations, and exploring the sculptural possibilities without regard to where application will be."
