Paper artist Helen Hiebert brings together fiber art and papercraft in this inviting guide to paper weaving, an art form that's accessible, sustainable, and endlessly creative. No loom or specialized equipment required; all you need is paper you likely already have on hand, whether that's maps, postcards, old journals, or holiday cards.
Each of the 30 projects comes with a creative prompt, clear technique instruction, step-by-step photographs, and examples designed to spark your own ideas. Thoughtful questions woven throughout encourage you to develop a personal practice, and profiles of contemporary paper weavers offer a window into the many directions this craft can take.
"Weaving is a metaphor for so many things in life. When I create art, it is intertwined with the questions I ponder in the spaces I inhabit as an artist, as a family member, in the various communities I belong to, and on our planet." —Helen Hiebert, Introduction.
