The Essential Guide to Embroidery Book
with exclusive Autographed Bookplate signed by 14 contributing authors
.
It's a long time since there has been an encyclopaedic book about embroidery techniques which includes both traditional and modern approaches, and this book fills this gap in the market.
Each section contains historical information about a particular technique, the types of materials used and how to use them, and ideas on getting started. There are projects within each section which will help you try out each technique and the book aims to address different levels of stitchers, so there should be something which will appeal to everyone here.
It includes sections by Liz Arthur (History), Samantha Bourne (Goldwork and Silk shading), Jill Carter (Hardanger and Canvas work), Leon Conrad (Blackwork), Annwyn Dean (Design), Maria Diaz (Cross stitch), Tracy Franklin (Whitework, Pulled fabric and Drawn thread work), Lynn Horniblow (Bead work), Jane Iles (Shadow work and Cutwork), Jane Rowe (Stumpwork), Lesley Teare (Surface embroidery), Kathy Troup (Getting started), Phillipa Turnbull (Crewel work) and Pamela Watts (Machine embroidery).
While stocks last, books ordered through Leon Conrad Designs will come with an original exclusive autographed bookplate signed by the various contributing authors - these are not photocopies, these are the real thing!
