Sew 25 fun and fabulous designs for all sizes and ages, with ideas for many more MADAME ZSAZSA This fun, quirky book is packed with gorgeous, colourful skirts to sew for women of all sizes and girls of all ages. It contains 25 different skirt projects, all of which can be customised easily using the full-size patterns given in the back, and all of which can be made for adults or children. Each design is shown made from several different fabrics and with different trims – to inspire the reader to follow their own personal style. Choose from styles such as A-line, bell, circle, straight, gathered, wraparound and elasticated, and also learn how to add underskirts or adapt a design to create maternity wear. Packed with tips on stitching, choosing fabric and a comprehensive guide to cutting and using the patterns, this book shows the reader exactly how to create their own fun and flattering designs! Pgathered • Paperback with stretChy flaps • 160 pages skirt with waistband • 235 x 190mm (7½ x 9¼ inches) The gathered skirt – what a wonderful design! This skirt doesn’t have a pattern.The skirt section is a piece of fabric that can be as wide as you want. For the yellow skirt I multiplied the hip measurement by three, and for the other skirt I doubled it.The coloured waistband at the top is cut out of a stretchy fabric that is still sufficiently tight to stop the skirt from slipping. If you want to make this skirt for yourself (and you’re aged over fourteen) then don’t use a square piece of fabric, but use the A-line or bell-skirt pattern. See page 137 to find out what you need to do.

• 200 colour photographs • ISBN: 9781782214106 PATTERN SECTIONS • £12.99 / $19.95 • Skirt section: check the size chart to find the length. For the width, take at least two times the hip measurement. The skirt section is cut against the selvedge, so there’s no need to hem the bottom. • Wide waistband: because stretchy fabrics all stretch to different degrees, it’s best to fit the waistband first; however it definitely needs to be a few cm (an inch or so) shorter than the waist measurement. Remember that the waistband will be folded in half widthways before being sewn onto the skirt, so you should multiply the height you want by two. Personally I always make it 12cm (4¾in) wide, including the seam.

The Skirt Emporium

We won’t be 100 per cent accurate in our measurements for this skirt, so it doesn’t matter how much seam allowance you leave for the side seam. I finished off the yellow skirt with a French seam and the green skirt with a normal zigzag stitch seam. The instructions will show you how to finish it with a French seam.

The book is aimed at stitchers of all abilities, from absolute beginners looking to learn a new craft to embroiderers and cross stitchers who want to do something different in cross stitching.

As well as providing exciting designs to stitch, there is guidance on how to create cross stitch designs of your own, for example by using photographs and other images for reference.

Cute knitted animals and their mini-me toys, with keepsake outfits to knit & sew SUE STRATFORD This book is filled with cute, easy knits with a vintage feel. There are knitting patterns for seven different adorable animal toys – a rabbit, a kitten, a mouse, a puppy, a panda, a teddy and a monkey, each approx. 8 inches (20cm) high, and all easy and quick to knit. Each animal is accompanied by a mini knitted version of itself that can be stored in the little shoulder bag or backpack that each toy carries. There are patterns for over 50 garments and accessories in which to dress the toys - most of them knitted and some sewn garments. All the clothes are one size and designed to fit every animal, so the reader can mix and match items to create their chosen toy's own unique wardrobe. The outfits are split into themes such as Out to Play, Picnic Time and Time for School, and include pyjamas, outdoor clothes, summer dresses, school uniform and so on, with added accessories. Readers are encouraged to use up scraps of yarn and fabric they already have for the clothes, re-using materials from a favourite item that’s long since outgrown to make a keepsake toy that has special significance. • Paperback with flaps • 144 pages • 260 x 204mm (8 x 10¼ inches) • 405 colour photographs • ISBN: 9781782213796

PROJECT

Lace Mandala Calm yourself through crocheting, with 50 repeat patterns and motifs in therapeutic colour combinations and 20 inspiring projects, all for mindful relaxation. An inspiring collection of repeat crochet patterns, with both small and large geometric motifs, designed to not only release the reader's creativity but also relax the mind.

The calming rhythm of crocheting a mandala design is enhanced when each round is worked in a contrasting brightly coloured yarn. This Lace Mandala is made using the first four rounds of the Dainty Mandala (see page 20) at its centre. The motif is then extended by adding seven more rounds. The result is as a light, open circle using a 4-ply yarn. INSTRUCTIONS

This complete beginner’s guide to painting watercolour landscapes is ideal if you want to learn to paint but are short on time. Broken down into 30 quick and easy paintings that take no more than 30 minutes to complete, this basic course will teach you all the skills you need to paint landscapes and their components – including trees in winter, moving water, gates and paths, and animals and human figures in the landscape. The 30-minute paintings are all worked at postcard size – ideal for a 6 x 4in (A6) watercolour pad, and tracings are included for those with limited drawing skills. Each small painting is a work of art in its own right, and can be stored in your portfolio for reference later, or framed and hung on the wall to impress your friends. The book is broken down into nine chapters that focus, respectively, on washes, colour mixing, creating flowers, colour glazing, painting water, trees and foliage, adding detail, special effects and composition. The final section of the book contains three complete paintings that demonstrate how to combine all the techniques and elements of painting landscapes, as gleaned from the preceding chapters. These paintings, too, are accompanied by actual-size tracings. • Paperback flexi • 96 pages • 280 x 216mm (8½ x 11 inches) • colour throughout • iSbn: 9781782214144 • £9.99 / $19.95 all rights free

Quick & Lively Urban Sketching

NEW

klauS meier-Pauken

In a time when most people have a camera to hand at all times, the question of why we sketch is ever more relevant. A sketch cannot capture a scene with perfect accuracy – instead, it is about something more. We sketch to capture an impression, record a feeling, create a personal interpretation; sketching is an act of personal expression. Written by architect and art teacher Klaus Meier-Pauken, an expert in urban sketching this informative book teaches the reader to create quick, animated drawings that are full of life and expression. Whether the reader is looking to discover their own sketching style, or to build on existing knowledge, the practical exercises will get them thinking, and the extensive collection of the author’s work will inspire them. Divided into seven lessons: tools, colour, composition, bringing a sketch to life, urban life, landscapes and human subjects - each contains learning objectives and tips to hone technique. Decide how strong or detailed to make linework; when to use pencil or ink; how much colour to use, and where; how to successfully compose an image and use perspective to bring it to life; how to use contrast; how to incorporate detail. • Paperback • 64 pages • 280 x 216mm (8½ x 11 inches) • 80 colour illustrations • iSbn: 9781782214175 • £8.99 / $15.95 all rights free

Giovanni Civardi was born in Milan in 1947. While training to become a sculptor, portrait artist and illustrator at the Free Life-Study School of the Accademia di Brera, he also studied medicine and surgery. For over a decade, he worked as an illustrator, producing commissions for newspapers, magazines and book covers. During frequent trips to France and Denmark, Civardi put on one-man exhibitions of this work and pursued his interest in studying the relationship between medical anatomy and the human form as depicted by the artist. His experience gained from teaching anatomy, life drawing and portraiture in schools and institutions over many years has led to the publication of numerous books in which Civardi's experiences are brought into focus. Giovanni has authored a number of bestselling titles both in the UK and abroad.

GOTTFRIED BAMMES bestselling author Gottfried Bammes, born in 1920 in Freital, Germany, worked as an art teacher at the College of Fine Arts in Dresden. He was a prolific writer and artist, considered to be a master of life drawing and anatomy and produced numerous books on the subject in his lifetime. In 1974 Bammes was awarded the National Prize of the German Democratic Republic for Science and Technology and received the Culture and Art Prize of the City of Freital in 2000. His anatomic drawing textbooks have become standard reference works, and several of his books have been translated into English. Author of the bestselling Die Gestalt des Menschen, originally published in German in 1964.

The Complete Guide to Anatomy for Artists & Illustrators

FEB 2017

gottFried bammeS

Originally published in German in 1964, Professor Gottfried Bammes’ Die Gestalt des Menschen is still considered the definitive guide to drawing the human form. Having undergone numerous editions since it was first published and still much in demand today, this, the first ever English translation of the complete work, has been long awaited. Based on the most recent German edition and faithful to the original, it contains over 1200 photographs, diagrams and drawings, including work by the author himself, and spans over 500 pages. Now, both new and experienced English-speaking artists and illustrators can benefit from the vast body of knowledge accumulated and lovingly presented by Professor Bammes in his acclaimed work. This comprehensive guide begins with the history of human anatomy for artists, and its influence on the development of the artistic visualisation of the body. Bammes goes on to explore in depth the human skeleton and musculature; the proportions of the body; the static and dynamic laws of posture and movement; body language; and the interrelationships of the various elements of the body. Through his systematic and practical approach to teaching, the reader will acquire an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and the ways in which it can be used to express the human form in art. • hardback • 504 pages • 295 x 210mm (8¼ x 11½ inches) • 1222 illustrations • iSbn: 9781782213581 • £50.00 / $80.00

Resin jewellery first started in the US around 6 years ago and has now become one of the fastest-growing trends in jewellery making. The technique is very simple – you simply mix the two-part resin together and pour into a bezel or pendant. Rings, pendants, brooches, cufflinks, hairpins and bracelets are all easy to make and look incredibly professional when done. Resin is In this inspiring book, well-known crafter Sara Naumann shows you just how easy and quick resin jewellery is to make, using minimal equipment and readily available products, and provides over 50 fabulous projects for you to try. You can add numerous items to the resin to achieve different effects. You can place paper in the bezels to act as a background to the resin – such as old book paper, map paper, scrapbook paper and photographs. Paper can also be painted, stencilled, or layered with washi tape before being coated with resin. Try sheet music for a vintage vibe, or origami papers for a fresh, contemporary look. In addition, you can also immerse various items in the resin before it cures, such as dried flowers and leaves, feathers, shells, beads and charms, or try adding glitter, coloured inks, nail polish and virtually anything else you can think of. The versatility of resin jewellery is awe-inspiring, providing papercrafters as well as jewellery-makers with all the skills and inspiration they need to design and make their own stunning pieces.

Choosing materials You can use any weight of card for this project – but stay away from anything too thick, as it will make cutting more difficult. Play around with different colours, or even try patterned paper for added detail.

Take a piece of the card at least as tall and twice as wide as the template. Using a metal ruler and bone folder, fold the card in half widthways. Scoring the line first will help you to create a sharp crease. Place the printed template on the card with the centre of the feather flush against the folded edge. Tape the template in place. From here we have removed the template for clarity.

Using a craft knife on a cutting mat, cut out all the inlets around the edge. Be sure to move your blade from the feather outwards to avoid slipping or overcutting.

Cut around the outline of the feather. You could use a pair of scissors rather than your craft knife for this particular step, if you prefer.

Remove the template and unfold the papercut. Use a bone folder to flatten and smooth the central crease.

7

Use washi tape to secure the cake topper onto a tooth pick. Alternatively, make two feathers and glue them together, sandwiching a tooth pick in the middle for a cake topper that looks flawless from both sides.
