Thread Painting and Silk Shading Embroidery

Techniques and Projects

Margaret Dier

Description

Thread painting embroidery is one of the most beautiful embroidery techniques. Often mistaken for painted art, it shows off the true skill of an embroiderer.

This book demystifies the technique and shows how easy it is to start embroidering your own stitched masterpieces. For the true beginner and the experienced stitcher alike it will be a treasured guide, explaining the techniques and providing the inspiration to master this exquisite form of embroidery. Over 600 colour photographs support 20 step-by-step projects that range from a simply shaded topiary tree to a three-dimensional hydrangea bouquet.
