The centerpiece of the handbook is a range of stunning fabric jewelry—necklaces, bracelets, and earrings—crafted from silks or cottons complemented by a colorful decorative cord that is woven or knotted into unique designs, called kumihimo . Instructions are provided for several unusual craft techniques including Japanese knotwork, Delica beading, and fabric origami, each with color drawings and step-by-step directions. Projects are accompanied by color photographs evocative of contemporary Japanese style, and every chapter opens with a wonderful original watercolor by the author, as well as text providing reflections on Japanese life and art. Review: A joyful little trinket making book - The items Kumiko Sudo gives you instructions to make in this book are charming, the instructions are easy to follow. My only complaint is that I wish she gave suggestions for materials that would work in these patterns. A lot of my attempts at using bizarre fabric worked - some did not. Sadly that was my error, but a little direction would have been nice. The gifts to make in this book are so charming. You are sure to find a number of little gifts to make, purses, cell phone cozy, pin cushion books, thimbles, etc. I have made a few of the smaller purses for my niece to use in her make beleive play. I also enjoy Kumiko Sudo's other books, specifically Kokoro no Te: Handmade Treasures from the Heart in which she gives you instruction in making little pouches or pockets, small purses in the shapes of animals or flowers. Making these crafts is is just a joyful experience. And stretching your imagination at the items it is possible to make with a little fabric just sort of wakes you up. Review: Favorite author does not disappoint - I love all of Kumiko Sudo's books. They are practical as well as beautiful. Sometimes I read them just to get inspired. They are a favorite visual aid at all my classes, both paper and textile. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #604,394 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #479 in Jewelry Craft (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 36 Reviews | ## Images ![Wagashi: Handcrafted Fashion Art from Japan - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51c20+aGw2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A joyful little trinket making book *by D***Y on June 27, 2011* The items Kumiko Sudo gives you instructions to make in this book are charming, the instructions are easy to follow.
