A 1975 book on American embroidery and denim. Denim decoration has the credentials as a folk art. It many not be quite as old an American art form as customizing one's own car, but it definitely antedates tie-dyed T-shirts and pray-paint graffiti. What is coming back with crafts is an attitude which hold that it is all right for human beings not to be machines, and that the imperfect work of a single human being's hands is of value, whether it keeps the rain off or not, whether it sells or not. This is a collection of denim folk art craft which will inspire all who read it.
Paperback, 157 pages. Measures approximately 8” x 9”. Published by Harry N. Abrams, 1975.
