artworks can be created from a humble sheet of paper. Building on
basic paper engineering and cutting techniques the projects

which the crafter 'pops' out the pieces to create the artwork, to
more technical curling and quilling in a floral bouquet, and a
bicycle sculpture as the final project. Notepad binding allows the

Modular origami is the latest craze in paper folding! These
three-dimensional models are created from many small pieces of
paper that are easily folded and then cleverly fit together to form
a spectacular shape. They range from paper polyhedra to bristling
buckyballs that are reminiscent of sea urchins--to ornate
flower-like spheres. Each piece of paper is held by the tension of
the other papers--demonstrating the remarkable hidden properties of
paper, which is at the same time flexible but also durable! Author
Byriah Loper has been creating modular origami sculptures for just
five years, but in that time, he's pushed the upper limits of the
art form with some of the most significant, most complex geometric
paper constructions ever assembled. While many geo-modular origami
artists focus on creating dense floral spheres, Byriah has
pioneered the open, linear "wire frame" approach, which results in
a very complex-looking model that reveals the interior of its form.
He regularly exhibits his sculptures annually at the Origami USA
convention in New York and was recently a featured artist at the
"Surface to Structure" exhibition at the Cooper Union gallery in
the East Village. A great way to learn origami, the easy-to-follow
diagrams and step-by-step instructions in this book show you how to
fold the paper components and then assemble them to create 22
incredible models. Each model is a new challenge, and the paper
sculptures you create look fantastic on your desk or shelf!
A beautifully illustrated practical guide to creating beautiful
modern lettering with brushes and brush pens, complete with a
sumptuous selection of projects. For the follow-up to her popular
book Modern Lettering, calligrapher extraordinaire Rebecca Cahill
Roots, AKA Betty Etiquette, concentrates on the area of calligraphy
that she's increasingly finding is the most popular: brush
lettering. In this quirky and relatable guide, she guides you
through how to use brushes and brush pens to make exquisite
letterforms. It's a beautiful, free-spirited style that, once
you've cracked the basics, you can add your unique personality to.
The book is divided by type of media, with each section containing
a set of exercises to help you get used to the pen or brush, an
alphabet and a set of numbers to copy, and an example quote in the
lettering style. Techniques include: * Using ink and brush *
Lettering with watercolour * Lettering with gouache * Brush pens *
Metallic brush pens To finish off, there's a selection of pretty
and practical projects to make using brush lettering, including
beautifully decorated celebration cards, cushions and tableware.

Fold decorative origami objects out of cloth with this easy-to-use
origami book. Fabrigami is the Asian art of folding fabrics to
create three-dimensional objects ranging from the practical to the
whimsical. Like paper, there are countless beautiful fabric designs
to choose from, but only fabric has the virtue of being extremely
durable. Fabrigami began as origami legend Florence Temko's final
project. Everyone knows that origami is the art of paper folding,
but Temko had begun experimenting with folding fabric to make
objects that are just as beautiful but more lasting than paper.
Sadly, Temko passed away before the book was completed, but her
collaborator, Jill Stovall, continued their work. Now,
Stovall--with the help of Scott Stern, a rising young star of
origami--brings Fabrigami to print for everyone to use and enjoy.
This origami book begins by presenting instructions on how to treat
fabric, so it holds a shape when folded. Then Stovall shares a
series of fun craft projects with simple origami-style diagrams
that you can use to make a range of lovely objects. Stiffening the
fabric requires some practice, but the folds are all easy enough to
be considered origami-for-kids projects and are a great way to
learn origami. Cloth origami projects include: Fan-tastic Fold
Earrings Evening Wine Coat Florence's Hexagon Box Cloth Kimono Card
Pleated Peacock
