Description

From simple landscapes that use only one or two kinds of stitches to fully realized raised and 3-D embroideries: use your needle and thread just like a brush and paint! This exciting and unique approach to producing exquisite embroidered pictures borrows freely from many areas of needlecrafts, including stumpwork and quilting techniques like trapunto. Packed with tips for designing and executing your own stitched "paintings," as well as 20 projects such as a Spanish Garden and Duck Pond. Inspiring! - from Amzon
