Paper artist Helen Hiebert shares 30 unique paper weaving projects with step-by-step instruction and inspirational prompts for developing a daily practice.

Combining fiber art and paper craft techniques, paper weaving is accessible, sustainable, and fun. Each of the 30 projects in the book includes a prompt, a technique, step-by-step instruction with photographs, and examples of the project, and will inspire readers to repurpose, recycle, and reuse papers they may already have, like maps, postcards, holiday cards, or journals. And, because it does not require specialized equipment like a loom, paper weaving really is for everyone.

Prompts and thoughtful questions are designed to help readers find their own creative path. Inspiring profiles and stories run throughout the book, highlighting a range of contemporary paper weaving artists.

  • “Helen Hiebert does it again!  This must-try, must-buy book offers many simple, fun and inspirational projects, guaranteed to delight the eye and stimulate the brain.”
    Paul Jackson, paper artist and author of 45 papercraft books
  • “Need a pep talk on how to show up to your own daily practice? Hiebert's new book has this and more. Abundant with prompts, examples, and ideas, Hiebert's latest book ignites possibility. Centered in paper weavings, Hiebert celebrates how regular daily practice leads to discovery and invention.” 
    Melanie Mowinski, artist and author of Collage Your Life
