One of the major features of Hardanger embroidery is its cutwork,
and within that cutwork there are myriad stitches that can be used
to embellish and decorate. This book brings together the widest
range of Hardanger filling stitches ever compiled. It includes both
traditional stitches and contemporary ones, from the very simple
right through to the incredibly complicated, all broken down into
clear, step-by-step instructions with diagrams for every step.
There are colour-coded left-handed (red) and right-handed (blue)
instructions for every stitch. A Hardanger band sampler project
features many of the stitches. The step-by-step instructions are
easy to follow, making it easy to learn. Whether you’re a learner
who works best by seeing (the illustrations) or reading (the words)
or both, you can find success with the instructions in this book.
You will learn to avoid problems and have the self-assurance to fix
any mistakes you make. Yvette Stanton’s expert instructions will
help you on your way to making beautiful Hardanger embroidery
filling stitches. The featured project will be a Hardanger band
sampler, which will feature many of the stitches demonstrated in
the book. There will also be historical information on
Hardanger filling stitches including photographs of historical and
contemporary examples; information on materials and equipment and
tips and tricks including really important information on tension.
