| This is a gently used book.
"Embroidery Book" by Erica Wilson. This book is signed by the
author. This book contains information on Crewel,
Needlepoint, Black work, White Work, Stump Work and Applique. Full
directions, with stitch diagrams, are given in each chapter with many
illustrations of old and contemporary examples. Design, color and the
choice of stitches are fully discussed. The story of each type of work set in it's historic background makes
fascinating reading, but the essence of the book is the application of traditional
techniques to modern designs and uses. It will not only inspire the beginner but help the
experienced embroiderers to learn new skills and explore the endless possibilities
of
original stitch and color combinations.
