Illustrations made with starch (6)
I believe the answer is:
charts
'illustrations' is the definition.
(chart is a kind of illustration)
'with starch' is the wordplay.
'starch' can be anagrammed to 'CHARTS'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.
'made' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for charts that I've seen before include "Maps for ship's captain" , "Maps for captains" , "Starch (anag)" , "Maps; plans" , "Maps to assist navigation by air or sea" .)
