Preserving the Past in Primitive Rugs by Barbara Evans Brown

PRESERVING THE PAST IN PRIMITIVE RUGS

"Hooking a primitive rug is a beautiful way of preserving the past." Barbara Brown means what she says, and in Preserving the Past in Primitive Rugs, she proves it. With each pattern and full-color rug shown in the pages of this book, Barbara discusses her choice of colors, design decisions, and fabric selections--even what she would change about a completed rug. Through her experiences you will learn how to find sources of inspiration, determine a point of view, and select the elements of a design. She will even guide you step-by-step through the process of drawing a pattern.
