Fresh Prints by Christine Leech
Forget about specialist silk screens and bulky printing presses, for her latest book in the Simple Makes series, Christine Leech has devised 20 easy-to-make-at-home printing projects that use commonly found equipment, from the Lace Print Tote Bag that is created by wrapping a piece of broderie anglaise around a rolling pin to the Utensil Print Napkins and Table Runner decorated with the crazy shapes created by using a potato masher or whisk. The book contains all the techniques needed to create the projects, from paint rollering and lino block printing to natural sun printing and traditional marbling, as well as the trace-off motifs needed for particular designs. From the Kaleidoscope Marbled Mugs and Nordic Fir Lampshade for your home to the Feather Print Tee and Raindrops Umbrella, you'll soon be covering everything formerly plain in prints!
Christine Leech has been an avid crafter since childhood. She now has over fifteen years of experience art directing leading magazines and a successful freelance illustration career working on titles including New Woman, Marie Claire, Look and Fabulous. Just over two years ago Christine helped to to launch a quarterly magazine for Hobbycraft, the craft superstore.
