Here Annabel explains simple techniques for weaving, ruching and wiring, as well as showing how to make accessories such as tassels, flowers, tiebacks and the ever adaptable Turk’s-head knot. Ribbons & Trims also reveals endless design possibilities, with decorative ideas for every room in the home, and 25 step-by-step projects for creating one-off pieces upholstered or trimmed with ribbon, braid, beads or tassels.
