New ideas in reclaiming, recycling and reusing a range of fabrics and papers in textiles with the use of both stitch and heat tools. Whether you want to be thrifty, green or want to add a sense of heritage to your work, reclaiming old bits of paper, fabric, plastic and packaging can lead to the most stunning textile art. Kim Thittichai takes you through a range of techniques, from collage, quilting, patchwork, rag-rugging, piecing and stitch and gives it her own twist, combining it with heat tools, in many cases, to highlight new ideas in textile art.
