Walking the Block, is a poetic biography based on the lives of the Modernist handblock printers and textile artists, Phyllis Barron and Dorothy Larcher, who created a unique range of hand block printed naturally dyed textiles between the two World wars. Their work was widely commissioned by a range of clients including Coco Chanel, the Duke of Westminster, Winchester Cathedral and Girton College, Cambridge. Jane Weir was also responsible for designing the book with a view to emulating the creative approaches of Phyllis and Dorothy and it is printed from paper manufactured from sustainable forest sources and printed with vegetable based inks.
