Macramé is a fibre medium that has been around for centuries, and yet there are still revolutionary ways to modernize and elevate the knots.

In this book, fibre artist Terri Watson shares her new school approach to creating contemporary knotted macramé canvases, using just a few simple knots. Terri has been shaking up fibre traditions for years with her vertical clove hitch knot tapestries, choosing to explore an unprecedented style, and shaping an emergent fibre phenomenon.

If you have ever wanted to learn tips and tricks from one of the pioneers of this style, look no further! In this book, Terri candidly shares many of her tried, true, and top secret (shhhh!) knotting techniques: including how to create vertical clove hitch knot fibre art that is as polished on the back as it is on the front; how to finish a piece using her signature streamlined scroll finish; how to incorporate different colours to create beautiful knotted tapestries. By following the step-by-step instructions in this book, you too can learn to design and create your own macramé ‘canvas' patterns like a pro!

This book features ten projects that Terri will walk you through start to finish, followed by an extensive library of over 100 patterns and designs that you can use to create a wide variety of your own projects ― wall art, plant hangers, pot covers, garlands, table mats, and even show-stopping denim jacket panels that will turn your threads into walking works of art. Consider this book a manual that will help you unlock your knotting potential, and create fibre artworks that even your mother-in-law will enjoy.

Amazing book, but unnecessary
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I would give this book 5 stars, but at the end of the day I don't think I can. I love flipping through it and looking at the color palettes and seeing the ways the artists communicated ideas through their limited palettes and spaces. There are also little 3D paper arts you can do of some of the sprites, like the fountain pictured above. It has helped me in my pixel art journey and it could 100% help you. The only reason I would say not to buy it is because all of the sprites are accessible online. If you want to understand the art on a deeper level and develop an appreciation for the passion that pixel art contains, buy it. If you want to look at them quickly as references and are an experienced pixel artist, it is not as useful, you could learn the rules just by looking at the sprites online, but you would miss the explanations and writings that help explain the art.

Great for my Quilting!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I bought this book at launch and it has pretty much become my “bible” for Final Fantasy pixel art. I sew and love making nerdy quilts so when I saw this, it was a total insta-buy. It showcases so much original art as well as newly designed sprites (for both older and newer games). I honestly didn’t know about the newer games being designed as sprites so when I saw this, I immediately got to creating. Beyond this being a great pattern book for pixel quilting, I loved seeing a piece of FF history we don’t get to know about. Also loved the interview showcased. A good book for any Final Fantasy lover collection!

A great book for a fan of the early final fantasy series.
Format: Hardcover
I love this book! I grew up with the NES and this brought back a lot of memories of how as a kid I would get lost in the creativity of what developers of these games made with only some blocks. I love pixel art and this book is great if you enjoy making your own and admiring the work of someone else's and seeing their imagination from some truly great games. This book is small in size but is perfect size to show blown up images of final fantasy pixel characters and creatures, also of places from the games. Also having final fantasy characters from beyond the Nintendo/SNES was a really cool surprise to see if they had been made in that era.
