Embroideries from an English garden,
By
This review is from: Embroideries From An English Garden (Hardcover)
I came across a review for this book in a UK needlecraft magazine, whereby it was described as "Real embroidery". This is probably the closest thing you will get to real embroidery and I have purchased most books on the same lines. Her projects come alive off the page making one want to reach out and pick the flowers. The designs are stitched using long and short stitch shading, padding and a small amount of stumpwork techniques all of which create a 3D effect. The instructions are clearly illustrated and once you have tried the projects in this book you will never look back, you will be addicted and will never be able to pass a plant or flower without wanting to paint it with your needle. Highly recommended, a must for keen embroiderers or beginners wanting to learn.
