Learn to dye cellulose fabric and hand-stitch quilts with founder Sara Buscaglia's beautiful aesthetic, informed by the extraordinary landscape surrounding her farm. Her creative practice centres on simplicity, working with nature, and using naturally derived materials and processes—and for the first time, she shares it with readers in this book.
Farm & Folk Quilt Alchemy explores natural dyeing methods and details the process of creating a quilt from scratch. With an emphasis on the slow and intentional aspects of hand stitching, Buscaglia's quilts are artful and satisfying to create. By focusing on select dye plants and recipes, which are all ideal for cotton, linen, and cellulose fibres specifically, Buscaglia teaches the reader how to achieve consistent and beautiful results using traditional handwork techniques.
