90 original iron-on transfer designs from the archives of the
Embroiderers' Guild! An important though largely forgotten part of
the Embroiderers' Guild legacy is the huge collection of hot-iron
transfers dating back to the early 20th century that were created
by members of the Guild. They fell out of favour in the 1960s and
the Guild stopped producing them. Many transfers were stored away
and haven't been seen since those times; others were simply thrown
away. Recently rediscovered and made available for the first time
in over half a century, this unique collection includes 90 original
designs ranging from the early to mid-twentieth century. This
treasure trove of design inspiration is presented in two separate
books enclosed in a hardback folder. The Reusable Iron-on Transfers
book includes 90 designs that you can cut out and store in the
pocket inside the folder after use. This is accompanied by a handy
Stitching Guide that includes 26 beautifully worked examples to
inspire your colour, thread and stitch choices, as well as
information on tools and materials, using an embroidery hoop, and
18 embroidery stitch diagrams.
