Book Description
Perhaps it is true that God rests, but His presence remains vigorously and constantly astir in everything He has created. Beauty is evidence of that presence. Michael L. Burger has seen this evidence for himself, in stunning detail, and it has reminded him daily of the great beauty and peace in God's love. Ice Flowers are natural phenomena that occur when a deep frost occurs on unfrozen ground when sap and water are drawn from the leaves of plants and frozen into beautiful shapes resembling petals. In the same way, God draws forth our very being and creates something beautiful from it, as a reminder of his imminent presence and eternal love. In this collection of essays and anecdotes Dr. Michael L. Burger has collected moments of true beauty that you can carry on your way. As you walk through winter look for Ice Flowers, and remember that God's love is ever evident in the beauty he has created in and around us.

The essence of plants bursts forth in magnificent hues and surprising palettes. Using dyes of the leaves, roots, and flowers to color your cloth and yarn can be an amazing journey into botanical alchemy. In Eco Colour, artistic dyer and colorist India Flint teaches you how to cull and use this gentle and ecologically sustainable alternative to synthetic dyes.

She uses renewable resources and shows how to do the least possible harm to the dyer, the end user of the object, and the environment.

On February 18, 2002, Vonetta Flowers made Olympic history, becoming the first African-American to win a gold medal in the Winter Olympics. Her fellow Olympians chose her to carry the U.S.A. flag in the closing ceremonies. But this historic feat took the faith of a conqueror. though trained as a track and field athlete since the age of 9, Vonetta did not make the cut for the summer olympic track team. Her coach and husband, Johnny, later saw an ad for bobsled competitors and convinced Vonetta to go for this previously unconsidered sport. She made it. Her lifetime of track training placed her in the anchor position on the 2-woman bobsled team, and the rest is literally history. Vonettas story is one of intense faith in God, whom she freely credits for her victories.

Book Description
A Heritage of Colour explores the techniques that can be used to create a wealth of colours from 50 plants, including many that have been in constant use as dyes for over 2000 years. Inspired by the colours on textile fragments from the Iron Age and by the achievements of early dyers, the author describes some of the dyes and methods of the past and considers how they can be adapted for use by today's dyers. The book covers all the basics of natural dyeing and explains in detail how to experiment with local plants, wherever you may live, to produce a wide range of beautiful, rich colours on textile fibres. A Heritage of Colour also includes sections on dyeing with fungi, contact printing on cloth and dyeing multi-coloured fibres and fabrics. The emphasis throughout is on environmentally-friendly methods and on the thrill of personal discovery through practical experience. Follow Jenny's blog on http://www.jennydean.co.uk/
