The Stumpwork, Goldwork & Surface Embroidery Beetle Collection Ref: 1863513183


Author
Jane Nicholas

Jane Nicholas is an experienced embroiderer in goldwork, crewel and ethnic embroidery but specialises in stumpwork. She has been researching this technique for more than sixteen years, during which time she has authored two books on the topic.

Summary

In this wonderful book Jane shares her methods of using beautiful threads and fabrics - and beetle wings - to create beautiful designs and projects in many forms of embroidery. Some are simplicity itself - an elegant beetle shape embroidered in glittering metallic threads to reflect the iridescent colours of the wing cases set in a paperweight, for example. Others are delightful floral pictures in which a glittering stumpwork beetle plays a starring part. Lavishly illustrated in colour, this book with detailed step-by-step instructions accompanied by numerous explanatory diagrams is a fascinating addition to the working bookshelf of anyone interested in dimensional and textured embroidery.

Highly acclaimed international author and embroiderer Highly sought after guest lecturer at embroidery guilds and craft shows around the world Unsurpassed research, skills and instructions Precise anatomical embroidered recreations Incredible photography of newly created and rare historical pieces A huge volume of information, presented in a professional format and style which will make this incredible embroidery accessible to all embroiderers with a passion or even an interest in these styles of embroidery The best book yet from Jane Nicholas!
