This book explores the art of creating natural-looking silk botanicals, offering a step-by-step guide to making immaculate interpretations from a range of silk and millinery fabrics.

With the help of over 400 beautiful illustrations, including templates for each flower, you'll learn how to capture the detail and essence of more than thirty flowers, from the common daisy to the complex English rose.

Renowned silk flower-making specialist Anne Tomlin shares her unique techniques for painting with dyes, stiffening silk, and shaping petals and leaves, encouraging experimentation and problem-solving to discover sympathetic methods of making silk flowers that immortalise their fleeting beauty.
