...it out in person. The book, Printing by Hand, is all about printing with stamps, stencils and silkscreen - a guide to making your own paper and fabric projects, with step by step instructions. The photos (by Thayer Allyson Gowdy) look casual, informative and pretty. Here are a few photo outtakes from Lena's blog:
