Author	Topic: Shibori help!
Tracy	posted 2/26/03 6:39 PM I'm from South Africa and have been teaching myself how to do Shibori from books. I am besotted with Arashi Shibori and recently aquired the Shibori book by Karren Brito. I have experimented and come up with a few pices of silk that I'm very happy with and would like to sew them into clothes. I sew most of my own clothes. I have seen the collars, star scarves, ribbon shawls and feather-pleated boas that Karren Brito makes and would like to try and make them for my outfits. I have no idea how to do this. Does anyone know about this? Would I have to try to make a paper pattern for these or does she fold her fabric in a special way. Any directions or instructions would be most appreciated. Thank you.

However, have a look at message http://amazingforums.com/forum/TRIBALTEXT/18.html and perhaps email Delia who might be able to point you in the right direction. Good luck!
