Complete Pleats: Pleating Techniques for Fashion, Architecture and Design

I’m a textile maker and have shelves and shelves of textbooks on designing and creating things by hand. This is the most user friendly book I have ever read.Its conversational and friendly style is peppered with occasional dry wit. The illustrations and written directions are perfect, easy to understand and encouraging. I would highly recommend reading and using this book exactly as Paul Jackson, its writer, requests.The ideas within have my head buzzing with endless design possibilities together with the thought that I’m in good hands here and will be able to achieve a design concept that I thought would be impossible.

BEAUTUFUL!As someone who’s business is all about folds and Covid making my reality one of reinventing myself...well this is the man and his work that is going to make that possible for me.

Clear instructions, source of inspiration, and also good fun. Lovely book.

It's peculiar how much of this we see in everyday architecture and fashion yet we don't notice! Really interesting subject.

One of the best books I have ever bought
