A collection of boro-inspired projects and techniques which celebrates this traditional Japanese textile and its relevance to the modern sewer and quilter. Learn about the history of boro and how it is being revived for a new audience using contemporary fabrics including denim, linen and shibori tie dye as well as sashiko and other embroidery stitches. The word boro comes from the Japanese boroboro meaning something tattered or repaired. It refers to textiles that have been mended or patched together for utilitarian, not decorative, purposes to make the fabric stronger and warmer, and to mend torn and threadbare areas. The techniques section includes a short stitch directory with traditional stitches (running stitch and applique) and contemporary stitches (herringbone stitch, blanket stitch, chain stitch and whipped running stitch). Other techniques include instructions on improvisational patchwork; applique: raw, turned edge and reverse; darning techniques and methods for distressing and ageing fabrics to achieve an authentic boro finish.

Boro is a word used to describe Japanese textiles that have been pieced, patched, repaired and passed down from generation to generation. Boro textiles are utilitarian objects that are rich and sumptuous and that, although old in age, possess a contemporary aesthetic, and are rooted in sustainability. This book contains information from three popular in-person workshops taught by Jody Alexander: Boro Sampler Book, Boro Bags, and Zakka, Zokin, and Chiku-Chiku. Included are images from Jody's personal collection of Japanese boro textiles, images of class samples, class handouts, and writing that reflects workshop discussions. Class handouts include instructions on mending techniques specific to boro textiles, Japanese side-sewn binding, tsunobukuro (horn bag), azuma bukuo, and zokin inspired coaster/placement or table runner for the home. There is also a glossary of Japanese terms that will be useful when studying boro textiles. This book is appropriate for beginners wanting to learn stitching and mending techniques or experienced artists and makers wanting to incorporate a new aesthetic into their work.

The Bauhaus school in Germany has long been understood through the writings of its founding director, Walter Gropius, and well-known artists who taught there such as Wassily Kandinsky and László Moholy-Nagy. Far less recognized are texts by women in the school’s weaving workshop. In Bauhaus Weaving Theory, T’ai Smith uncovers new significance in the work the Bauhaus weavers did as writers. From colorful, expressionist tapestries to the invention of soundproofing and light-reflective fabric, the workshop’s innovative creations influenced a modernist theory of weaving. In the first careful examination of the writings of Bauhaus weavers, including Anni Albers, Gunta Stözl, and Otti Berger, Smith details how these women challenged assumptions about the feminine nature of their craft. As they harnessed the vocabulary of other disciplines like painting, architecture, and photography, Smith argues, the weavers resisted modernist thinking about distinct media. In parsing texts about tapestries and functional textiles, the vital role these women played in debates about medium in the twentieth century and a nuanced history of the Bauhaus comes to light. Bauhaus Weaving Theory deftly reframes the Bauhaus weaving workshop as central to theoretical inquiry at the school. Putting questions of how value and legitimacy are established in the art world into dialogue with the limits of modernism, Smith confronts the belief that the crafts are manual and technical but never intellectual arts.

DO YOU LOVE FOOTBALL, HISTORY, WAR AND POLITICS? Then this is the book for you. DO YOU HATE FOOTBALL, HISTORY, WAR AND POLITICS? Then this is the book for you. After more than a century of immaculate footballing underachievement, Middlesbrough Football Club enjoyed its most successful period beginning with victory in the 2004 League Cup Final and ending on a disastrous night in Eindhoven. How did we get there... not just the extraordinary run in that tournament, and not just in sport, but historically, as a town, and as a community? My Only Boro is not just about Middlesbrough Football Club, it's not just a history book about the town and it's not just a social commentary on a town once described as the worst place to live in Britain - it's all this and more.
