Her creative practice centers on simplicity, working with nature, and using naturally derived materials and processes--and for the first time, she shares it with readers in this book. Farm & Folk: Quilt Alchemy explores natural dyeing methods and details the process of creating a quilt from scratch. With an emphasis on the slow and intentional aspects of hand stitching, Buscaglia's quilts are artful and satisfying to create. By focusing on select dye plants and recipes, which are all ideal for cotton, linen, and cellulose fibers specifically, Buscaglia teaches the reader how to to achieve consistent and beautiful results using traditional handwork techniques."
