Wonderful
I hardly ever review but I feel such a connection and inspiration from this book I feel I have to say something! Here, for me is a woman who speaks the same visual language, someone who has articulated deep things in a simple way. This book is priceless. I have a million things to do today, but I unpacked the book and could not stop reading it. So a huge thank you to Susan Brooks. Plus, if you are searching for something more than a 'how to' book (though this is included), the inspiration and deep connection this woman has to her practice is nothing short of wonderful. For me, THANK YOU!!!

Good information
The book is very informative with good illustrations. Not the best quality as pages and cover are a bit flimsy

Beautiful book
Beautiful book - quite detailed - lots of photographs but heavily based on paper eco printing, not so much for fabric. Full of ideas and inspitation though.

Simple instructions
I liked the book very much but it was a bit too American for me and I did not know what some of the materials (various natural dyes) were, nor had I heard of them because they are native to America perhaps. Despite this, I am still pleased with it.

Poor quality book
The contents of this book are beautiful. The quality of the book its self is so poor. I have many books, this has warped and buckled. The cover and paper are really poor quality. A real shame for the artist.

well written detailed book, Good place to start
fabulous book, clear easy and concise instructions for some projects. eco dyeing is not an easy subject and you need to experiment, but this book gives you a good start even if you haven't done it before

I like this book so much! I am a newby at eco dyeing and have experimented on my own, but the book explains in easy to understand way and pretty pictures! I have a batch boiling now. It's the time of year to start gathering my dye harvests to carry me through the winter! Thank you! This book is getting used!

good information
I took a class on eco-printing this past summer and am now hooked! This book is a very informative guide to have on hand as you try your own experiments with this wonderful art form.

Great instructional book!
Susan Brooks did a wonderful job with this book. My husband bought this book for me and I am impressed with everything within each page. I have other eco printing books by other authors, but Susan seems to make it so easy to understand and it's just like she's standing beside you walking you through the different processes and she explains everything very well. This book is for anyone, beginners or for those who have experience. I'm glad that I have thisbook to add to my library. She is very generous in sharing her experience in eco printing. Also, she has listed resources which is a nice perk in this book too.
