A very impressive book. Loved all the patterns and completed embroideries. I will be able to use this book but was disappointed to find it was a hand embroidery book and not a Free Motion Machine Thread Painting, which I had become to believe what Thread Painting was. I will still be able to use the patterns but they will be a lot flatter than the hand embroidered ones.
Ribbons & Roses: 32 Exquisite Ribbon Embroidery Projects
Providing a source of information and ideas on the craft of silk ribbon embroidery, this book contains 32 projects with step-by-step instructions and diagrams, including: a selection of frilled and piped cushions; embroidered baskets and blankets; and embroidered floral displays.
Pillows are the perfect creative canvas—easy to sew and ideal for crafters (even beginners) eager to experiment and play. And this classic item of home décor will look more beautiful than ever with these inventive interpretations by a group of talented indie designers. The creative projects include pillows adorned with chic appliqués; a bolster decorated with a child’s drawing embroidered onto the surface, and a cheerfully modern patchwork design made from fabric scraps.
