Layering is a major feature of today’s textile art, whether to create relief, colour, texture or dimension. The author takes you through a number of key materials – papers, synthetic and natural fabric, translucent materials, wires, paints and sprays – that can be incorporated into layered textiles. Various techniques are combined with these materials, from using heat guns, soldering irons and lazer cutting to machine and hand stitch to give the reader endless ideas for their own creative work. As always, the author has provided exercises for the creative process and the techniques but combined them with the work of the best textile artists around the world today. It provides the ultimate guide to the subject of layered textiles for readers looking to experiment with their own textile art.

Heat press is a relatively new way of embellishing, decorating, fusing and layering fabrics, and has a limitless range of applications, from fashion to fine-art, and interiors to installation. This book includes exciting new methods using the heat press developed through extensive experimentation. Techniques covered include: flocking, foiling, phototransfer, fusing, sublimation printing, heatsetting and embossing. Each process is explained in detail, with instructions for simple experiments and suggestions for further investigation. The methods featured have a comparatively low impact on the environment, and often utilise recycled materials or offer the opportunity to upcycle. The book has been carefully tailored to be suitable for a variety of skill levels, and includes affordable domestic options - such as heat pressing using an iron - as well as more ambitious and specialist techniques and materials for those with the resources, such as colleges and established textile artists who have access to a heat press.

Handbook of Stretchable and Elastomeric Textiles is a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about elastomeric textiles, including manufacturing techniques, physical properties, processing methods, and in-use care. All types of stretchable textiles are covered, including polymers, fibers, yarns, fabrics and composites. Starting with the fundamentals of the synthesis, properties and processing of elastomeric materials, this book goes on to help the reader choose the most appropriate parameters for manufacturing and processing, as well as the best elastomeric material according to specific end use applications. In general, elastomeric textiles are difficult to handle. During the manufacturing of elastomeric fabric, the handling of yarns is complicated. In addition, the processing stage is also challenging due to the heat sensitivity of the materials that affects how they are dyed, printed, washed and dried. The specific techniques required to produce a successful elastomeric textile have been developed over many years, hence this expertise is hard to come by. Provides foundational knowledge on the polymeric structure of elastomeric fibers Explains how various materials can be used to prepare elastomeric fibers Addresses how elastomerics are being used in wearables and smart textile technologies
