    These unique handwoven fabrics by Inge incorporate tablet-woven borders and accent bands. Inspired by ancient textiles discovered in Danish bogs and burial sites, they are a feast for the eyes and an inspiration for the imagination. She describes five tablet-weaving techniques (Warp-Twined Tablet Weaving, Regular Double-Faced Tablet Weaving, Double-Faced 3/1 Broken Twill, "Missed Hole" Technique, and Pebble Weave with Tablets), and explains her process for incorporating tablet weaving into loom-woven fabrics. Also included are some unique border treatments and embellishments with pattern motifs and project ideas. The instructions are clear and well-illustrated with over 320 photos, diagrams, and drawings. Weavers who wish to expand the possibilities for creating decorative and fashion fabrics will find this a valuable guide. Tablet weavers will find exciting new applications for their weaving.
