First book in a planned series of Ukrainian Easter Egg Design Books -- previously unpublished patterns. Pysanky are hand decorated eggs made with an ancient wax resist process. By breaking the design down to its simplest form, you will discover how to create very complicated and magnificent patterns. Each egg is described from beginning pencil lines to the final dye bath. Symbolism and color meanings are described for each of the 24 patterns. Complete step by step instructions are given for 24 designs.
