Book Description
Excerpt from Cotton Weaving and Designing Taylor's "Cotton Weaving" has for many years enjoyed a reputation among Students who have attended Day and Evening Classes in d104ile Weaving and Designing. It has, however, been found wanting in some important features, and others have needed expansion so as to bring the work up to modern requirements. A further Edition having been called for, has afforded the opportunity of having these deficiencies remedied by the addition of matters which will put the book in line with the latest improvements in this section of the Mechanical Arts. Chapter I., on preparatory processes, has been entirely rewritten and enlarged. My obligations are many to Mr. H. Nisbet, Weaving and Designing Master here, who has kindly carried out this work. Some chapters have had new and important features added, and many drawings are included for the first time, either as new illustrations, or in place of others which had become obsolete.

Book Description
Today's world textile and garment trade is valued at a staggering $425 billion. We are told that under the pressure of increasing globalisation, it is India and China that are the new world manufacturing powerhouses. However, this is not a new phenomenon: until the industrial revolution, Asia manufactured great quantities of colourful printed cottons that were sold to places as far afield as Japan, West Africa and Europe. Cotton explores this earlier globalised economy and its transformation after 1750 as cotton led the way in the industrialisation of Europe. By the early nineteenth century, India, China and the Ottoman Empire switched from world producers to buyers of European cotton textiles, a position that they retained for over two hundred years. This is a fascinating and insightful story which ranges from Asian and European technologies and African slavery to cotton plantations in the Americas and consumer desires across the globe.

Textile designers are beginning to realize the creative potential of digital textile design and are fast catching up with graphic designers who have taken to working digitally. New digital textile-printing technology is enabling designers to work with an almost unlimited palette of colors to produce work of staggering detail in relatively short timescales. Written specifically for textile designers, Digital Textile Design provides the know-how for students andprofessionals who wish to use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator as design tools. A series of inspirational tutorials, presented in step-by-step format, guide the reader through the process of creating designs that will be suited to both the traditional textile production process, and to the new industry of digital printing onto fabric. Against the backdrop of the development of digital print, the book discusses how designers can access this new technique, looks at the work of those currently exploring its possibilities, and also features the craft of embellishment that is being used to offset the apparent flatness of print.
