Magical Fabric Art: Spellwork & Wishcraft Through Patchwork Quilting and Sewing

This book is filled with wonderful ideas. It tells you how to create a magickal talisman from fabric and embellishments in a simple manner. You don't need a sewing machine for these, only using basic stitches. It is easy to follow and will make wonderful gifts. I will fore go some of the steps due to the fact I would like to be able to wash the talismans I make, since I have small children in the house. A wonderful book for the magickal sewer!

The title of the book is certainly correct. I love all the projects and one thing that really impressed me about this book is all the information on color, this is another keeper.

Magical Fabric Art a wonderful book for the beginner to expert. Ms. Scarpa walks you through each step and enables you to start your magical project on the most desirable moon and day of the week. Whether your project is 8"x10" or a quilt for your King size bed, this book is packed with the information you need for your work turn into an enhanced magical talisman. She gives the beginner example rituals for dedicating their work as well as explaining candle magic, Chinese ideograms, gemstone use, deities, spells for attracting love, harmony, and protection. On top of all this wonderful information she includes the idea of turning your sewing chest into a workbox of power. Whether the reader is looking for a spell for healing, protection, attracting love or just increasing personal power, Ms. Scarpa has delivered it in this book! I, personally, do not see why one could not adapt her teachings in this book to include modifying and empowering business suits, protection on the hem of a child's shirt, or attraction symbols on your favorite out on the town outfit. Definitely a new way of thinking about ones personal fabric he or she wears daily! Thank you, Ms. Scarpa for sharing your traditions. RosaPearl, psychic/shaman
