- A rare look at the work of a modern master I've been admiring photos of Lisa Lichtenfels' work for a good few years. Now and then a photo will turn up in this or that doll magazine, of a human or demihuman figure so realistic, so luminous, so detailed, it is hard to believe that it's a "cloth doll" over an "armature."
Ms. Lichtenfels' art falls into the category of "if you have to ask how much, you can't afford it." So for most of us, the occasional glimpse of a photo would be all we could afford. When Reverie came out with ... Read More

- Amazing!Anyone who sees Ms. Lisa's sculptures will be amazed, but people who sew will be astonished. Her stitches are microscopic and her attention to detail is unmatched. Add to this her vivid imagination and you have the most riveting figures I have ever seen. All artists should see this book. All fiber and thread lovers should see it. Everyone should see it!

- Figures in FabricBeautiful! It's hard to believe these are all fabric, truly. Very inspirational! I doubt I'd ever be able to make one of my own but it's wonderful to have on my coffee table and druel over from time to time. Wonderful book!

- Awesome!How does she do it??? It is hard to believe the dolls won't get up from the page and talk to you. They are alive. Kudos to Lisa. This book does not disappoint.

- Figures in Fabric - The Sculpture of Lisa LitchtenfelsFigures in Fabric is inspirational! The creations of Lisa Litchtenfels are truely exceptional works of art which are beautifully presented in this book, a definite "onshow" publication that will never go on a bookishelf or in a closet. A book to drool over again and again for inspiration and creativity, though I doubt anyone can measure up to her realism and vision. A must for any dollmaker to have in their library.
