Description: In Material World, Perri enlists the help of some of the world's top crafters - including Stitch & Bitch's Debbie Stoller, Lisa Stickley and jewellers Tatty Devine - who share their knowledge on their individual crafts, from screen printing to paper-cutting, dress-making to decoupage. With the compiled words of wisdom of these experts, and Perri's own timeless advice, you'll be inspired to take on the 21 projects that Perri has put together to get you (metaphorically) up and 'running with scissors'.
