Explore nature through a combination of textiles and embroidery in
this new, modernised edition of Gilda Baron's inspirational,
innovative, step-by-step work. Using painted and dyed backgrounds,
and hand and machine embroidery, this guide presents a wonderful
variety of three dimensional landscape and flower embroideries. A
number of techniques are employed when applying colour to the
fabric including batik, salt discharge and brushing dye into a wet
surface. Beautiful pictures are then stitched and built up over the
background in easy stages. The feeling of perspective is enhanced
by the clever use of scale and colour, and all the techniques are
explained clearly and demonstrated in a series of stunning
projects. This original book is packed with practical advice and
information. Anyone interested in pattern, texture and colour will
discover a wealth of inspiration when they work through the
projects. These highly individual designs will encourage beginners
and more experienced embroiderers to create their own embroidered
flower designs.
