Webzine review: Fibre & Stitch
Fibre & Stitch is a new “online mixed media zine,” available as a PDF download and focused on mixed-media projects combining fibre, paper, paint, and other art forms. The zine is 62 pages worth of articles, interviews, and detailed tutorials for a range of projects and techniques, published four times each year, and available through one-time purchase or subscription.
Projects include a fun candy-wrapper box, sun printing on fabric, paper quilting, and beautiful collaged and stitched “door” art pieces.
Each project is given several pages of detailed instructions and step-by-step progress pictures. I found the instructions consistently easy to follow and understand even if the techniques and materials used were new to me.
The website also offers many free project tutorials; I love the fabric charms – these could look so modern or charming and cute, depending upon the fabrics and colors chosen. A reader-submitted version even used the instructions to make cheerful magnets!
