## Description

Swatches is the ultimate user-friendly guide to anyone looking for design inspiration, taking a less historical but no less expansive view of the world of fabric than Abrams' 'Textile Designs: 200 Years of European and American Patterns'.

Review: Swatches - This arrived well before it was due and it's a superb resource book for anyone in the art world, designer, etc. It's a must to buy and full of fantastic inspirational imagery from colour, shapes, style and full history etc....You've got to get this book, one for a good talking point as well; my friends think it's amazing and colourful too! Swatches: A Sourcebook of Patterns with More Than 400 Fabric Designs
Review: Only pictures of swatches! - Like another reviewer, this book is lacking information on the swatches. Don't know about you, but I learn best by actually touching things. Difficult to really understand what the swatch is when you are looking at a picture with no description of the swatch. This book would have been a lot better if actual swatches were included along with information about the swatch. Tons of pictures of swatches provided. I wish I hadn't wasted my money on this.

This is a beautiful book with stunning photos of fabric. As an Upholsterer this has come in quite handy. And thank you for the unsuspecting autograph!
