Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Weaving with Paper is for readers of all levels, whether they are an experienced crafter or just beginning. Readers are guided through thirty projects and techniques with a special focus on developing a daily practice. Each reader's journey will be unique and personal, responding to prompts and thoughtful questions designed to help them find their own creative path. Inspiring profiles and stories run throughout the book, highlighting the daily practices and weavings of students from Hiebert's Weave Through Winter course as well as contemporary paper weaving artists.

The book focuses on creating personal meaning and emphasises the benefits of a daily creative practice. Each of the thirty projects includes a prompt, a technique, step-by-step instruction, and an example of the project. Inspirational quotes and meditations run throughout. The book also highlights repurposing, recycling, and reusing papers that people might already have, like maps, postcards, holiday cards, or journals. Weaving with Paper combines fibre arts and paper craft, two art forms that continue to gain popularity. Weaving with paper is accessible; it does not require specialised equipment like a loom.

Paper artist Helen Hiebert shares 30 unique paper weaving projects with step-by-step instruction and inspirational prompts for developing a daily practice.

Combining fibre art and paper craft techniques, paper weaving is accessible, sustainable, and fun. Each of the 30 projects in the book includes a prompt, a technique, step-by-step instruction, and examples of the project. These projects will inspire readers to repurpose, recycle, and reuse papers they may already have, like maps, postcards, holiday cards, or journals. And, because it does not require specialised equipment like a loom, paper weaving truly is for everyone.

Prompts and thoughtful questions are designed to help readers find their own creative path. Inspiring profiles and stories run throughout the book, highlighting a range of contemporary paper weaving artists.
