The Stencil Book shows how to get truly professional results as well as easy and quick ways to produce stencils of your own. Divided into seven chapters, The Stencil Book provides the reader with a short history of the craft, clearly explains the products and materials needed and discusses the different surfaces that are suitable for stencilling. There are several practical projects to tackle, including cushions, blinds, tablecloths, curtains, lampshades and cards, amongst others. A 16-page section of stencil templates is also included.
