Contrast in Crewel Embroidery

Modern Designs Stitched on Light ande Dark

Tatiana Papova

Description

Tatiana Papova offers innovative, inspirational and instructional ideas for enjoying colour in crewelwork embroidery.

At the heart of the book are the 4 paired 'light and night' embroideries. Each pair uses one design but varies the colours of the threads and fabric, along with certain details, to give two distinctly different results. Clear instructions and full-sized templates for these ambitious and impressive designs are included.

In addition, the book has:

  • 4 'Doodle designs' that allow you to produce a finished piece while you practise the stitches needed for the more ambitious 'light and night' projects
  • A full stitch index to give instant access to nearly 100 crewelwork stitches, from alternate stem stitch to woven wheel
  • Step-by-step pictures and supporting diagrams that make the steps easy to follow, with every aspect of the craft given lavish and in-depth attention
  • A DMC to Appleton thread conversion chart, making exploring colour as easy as it is fun
