5.0 out of 5 stars The Classic on Tapestry Weaving
a carefully crafted how-to and reference for all skills in Tapestry weaving and techniques. I Love this book. It is beautifully illustrated easy to follow instructions, tips and tricks. An easy read and a great read complete with photos to inspire. Came packaged well, with super-fast delivery. Wow Thank You Bolo, Thank You Vendor!
5.0 out of 5 stars Superb intro to tapestry weaving
I have a fairly substantial library of books on weaving and textiles, and this is easily the best introduction I have encountered to tapestry weaving. The instructions are clear; techniques for a variety of special weaves for the beginner are introduced and easy to follow. The introductory pieces are reasonable for a beginner to complete-the tapestries are coarser weaves to lend themselves to teaching, while being attractive and fun to make. The photographs are excellent, and the samples of her work serve to inspire the reader to try bigger and more difficult projects. The author is an excellent designer and colorist, so much can be learned from her completed work. Highly recommended to anyone interested in understanding tapestry weaving or aching to give it a try.
5.0 out of 5 stars excellent book
This is an excellent book for the beginner, or the experienced. I love the color photos which help to delineate the weaving process. It gives me the confidence I need to start and finish a project. As a beginner I need to see where I am going, not history , though interesting ,or extremely advanced projects. There are beautiful photos of intermediate and advanced work for inspiration , but the projects and techniques are not out of reach. For me it hit the right note. I have done only a bit of weaving but want to do more without the intensity needed in other types of weaving that include more measurement. I also ordered a similar book titled Tapestry Weaving , by Nancy Harvey. It too, is a great book , but this one is more accessible for the novice.
5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful and easy-to-follow instructions and ideas
This is a great book with easy to follow instructions. Wonderful for beginners like me. It includes a very helpful step-by-step process of making a sampler and some ideas for future projects as well as some of the author's work that provide a flavor of what kind of artist she is. Highly recommended if you can find it for a reasonable price. I paid just under $17 for the book, which included the shipping.Update: I have found this book online for $30 with shipping on a loom company website; just put the author's name in the search engine.

I had checked this book out of the library before making the investment to add to my weaving library. Very inspiring book with great instructions.
5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for beginning tapestry weaving.
This book contains the best photos for showing the step by step process of tapestry weaving. Easy to follow for any beginner you will find clear photos for each step of learning the way to set up and weave a tapestry. The author has many of her own weavings photographed in the book, but she has you refer to them throughout her teaching as advanced examples of some of the basics she is teaching. You also get a sense of her style and breath of her body of tapestry work. Once you have woven the first example you will be well on your way to being a "Tapestry Weaver"
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent history.
This book contained details, just what I was looking for. It gave me a solid foundation that I am now building on.
5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this book right now! You won't regret it.
I just received this book today. I honestly didn't think this book would be THIS AWESOME. But it is. The pictures inside are lovely. Very clear instructions are given about how to build a simple loom, costing very little using a picture frame. Now, how cool is that? And, the work inside the book is just lovely, very inspirational and will appeal to people with a variety of tastes. If you buy a book on tapestry weaving and you want to be inspired, get this one ASAP before it goes out of print again. You won't regret it. It's beautiful.

Kristen Glasbrook is an amazing artist! This book combines not only a brief history of tapestry but also illustrates many components tapestry artists would need with beautiful images and clear descriptions. It's now a special favorite research, go-to book of mine! THANK YOU!
A recommander a ceux qui veulentbs initier et aux autres
Excellent livre pour s initier a tapisserie tissage et aller plus loin si on veutDes images pas a pas et même si on a pas une maîtrise totale de l anglaisC est bien illustré et on comprend avec un dictionnaire pour les mots essentiels en tête de chapitreDe plus il n existe pas en français a ma connaissance de livre similaireJe le recommande vivement.
