From celebrated artist Lora S. Irish comes a treasure trove of small & beautiful patterns for crafters of all mediums. Perfect for carving, woodburning, painting, quilting & more, the patterns are provided in two detailed varieties: a line drawing for transferring & a shaded variety for illustrating depth & shadow. For new carvers Irish demonstrates the whole carving process from start to finish with a charming Country Apple Quilt Square project. She also explains the tools youll need, the appropriate woods to use & how to achieve the appropriate levels of depth in a relief carving. The wildlife, botanical, mythical, landscape & corner designs can beautifully stand alone or be incorporated into functional & decorative items around your home.
