Digital Textile Design, Second edition

got this book for my daughter who is a RISD-educated designer who has become interested in fabric design because of my own quilting work. She looked at all the options on fabric design and felt this one was by far the best in terms of a "textbook." It goes into serious detail on how to use software to design digital images (images not constrained by the traditional analog printing used in fabrics and denoted by all those color circles on the selvedge) and it's priced like a textbook. It's for the technologically sophisticated, but she thought it was excellent.

Even though the book is based off of older adobe versions, it is still easy to follow directions and move.

Looks well-illustrated, a lot of content.

For any textile designer or student designer alone this is perfect for that I love this book I have been using this book for about five year : )

I chose this book becouse I needed to find information about the process of digital textile printing, and buying this book turned into a great decision becouse it explain ancient technics and it has a very detailed explanation about digital printing.

Very informative book.

I ordered this book for a class on textile design. It is fairly well organized but the majority of the class did get confused a couple of times because of missing steps.I had already had a class using Illustrator and Photoshop so I was able to skip a lot or I knew a more efficient way to do many of the lessons.I recommend this book for beginners, but not for experienced Adobe users.

...it is a very useful book. if you're already getting into textile design, it's like a giant Q&A for some of the problems you're undoubtedly facing. I'm glad I bought it.
