Description

Aimed at every level of expertize, the 40 original embroidery designs in this book range from outlined kitchen utensils to geometric shapes and intricate sprigs of flowers and clusters of fruit. Yarn quantities, templates and stitch diagrams accompany each design, along with full making-up instructions for transforming finished pieces into decorative soft furnishings such as bed linen, tablecloths, cafe curtains and cushions. With alternative colourways and design variations, there is ample scope for individuality. A final section provides an illustrated step-by-step guide to embroidering all the stitches in the book and information on how to transfer the templates to fabric.
