Description
The authors of this book investigate the patterns, imagery and symbols of stitching through history to show how they can be interpreted in embroidery techniques today. Topics covered include embroidery used for narrative and magical purposes, for clothing and fashion, in interior design, in imagery, and in the use of nature and natural forms. Each topic is illustrated with drawings and embroidery samples, both historical and contemporary in origin. This book is designed to be of interest to emroiderers, City and Guilds students as well as anyone interested in art and embroidery history.
