Gets your creative juices flowing!, Jun 3 2005
By Diana Dunaway "twin sister" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Off-the-Shelf Fabric Painting: 30 Simple Recipes for Gourmet Results (Paperback)
Expand your fabric "stash" and create your own beautiful, easy to do hand painted delights. Sue Beevers's recipes are easy to follow & all the paints & suppiles are easy to find around your home & the local craft store. As a quilter I found this book to not only get my "juices flowing" painting delicious fabrics, but to also nudge me back to the design wall! This is an excellent addition to any fabric artist's library. Even if your time is limited, you can create beautiful fabrics very easily. Once you do one recipe you'll want to do them all! Wonderful book!

Recipe for success, Jan 7 2006

This review is from: Off-the-Shelf Fabric Painting: 30 Simple Recipes for Gourmet Results (Paperback)
This is a delight. The recipes for different effects are so clear, and the demonstration pieces show exactly what will (should) happen if you have more or less paint, do it in a different order, etc. I can't wait to make some sample pieces. It could have been even better with photos of the jobs being done, or stages and tools in the process. Very inspirational.

Even a beginner can do it., Sep 7 2008
By Samantha Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Off-the-Shelf Fabric Painting: 30 Simple Recipes for Gourmet Results (Paperback)
Great information with step by step instructions. Sue makes it so easy to understand the different types of paints available on the market and which brands are the easiest to work with. The instruction is detailed and even a beginner can do it. I'm looking forward to making more of my own hand painted fabrics!!
