Textilepedia: The Complete Fabric Guide

I construct many costumes for theatrical productions and this book is almost a material bible. Great descriptions. The only thing I would have liked would have been samples of the materials described.

For my little one, She loved it.

Lovely reference book. Very comprehensive in terms of fabrics covered albeit not any great depth to the individual entries, but then it’s a dip in and out of reference book really and the binding is sublime. Very tactile and pleasing.

Another beautiful and helpful guide book by fashionary, very well chaptered and displayed with images and explanations of everything. Lovely use of a stunning royal blue colour and the cover is made to represent calico. Can't get enough of these books

A lot of work went obviously into this book: the graphic design is beautiful, the content is clearly and logically arranged and there's a lot of information on fibers, fabrics, leather and manufacturing processes. I work with fabrics, I know a lot about fabrics and still I found new things in this book. However, there are errors in this book that might be confusing for someone who doesn't know anything about fibers and fabrics: the book needs another round of proofreading. There's silvers instead of slivers, warp knitting confused with weft in chapter 4.2, yards with meters. In the chapter about leather, the pictures of calf and cattle are swapped and where should be a picture of lamb, there's a cow. It's a bit annoying, considering how much work was put into this book by the authors and the designers. That said, I like the book and I would recommend it to all textile enthusiasts.

A gift book given for my daughter and she loves it!

Absolutely gorgeous book. This was a gift for a friend, but even I was impressed with it! We both sat and looked through every page. It's full of extremely useful information and is beautifully put together. If you have an interest in textiles, this is definitely for you.

Not only is this book full of useful information, it is so beautifully presented both inside and out that it's almost painful. Don't do yourself a disservice by buying the electronic version, buy the hardback and just sit in amazement at how wonderful this book is, you won't regret it at all. Inspiration for DAYS in these pages, one of the best things I have bought for myself.

This book is aptly named. It has a wealth of information on different fabrics. A very worthwhile purchase.

maravilhoso

Awesome book, very clear, very complete except that they do not include PLA material, for the rest very nice

Amazing book with great information about fiber and fabric fibers. A must have for sewists who want to know more about fabric content. Also lists sustainability features, which I appreciate.

Un livre très qualitatif et synthétique. Très belle esthétique également, je suis très contente.
