Book excerpt: Excerpt from Art Embroidery: A Treatise on the Revived Practice of Decorative Needlework It is many years Since the samplers of our granda mothers gave place to the fancy-work of modern times, and we are only now beginning to perceive all the uselessness and ugliness of those productions which have brought this term into such dis repute, and have caused the adoption of one of greater refinement and at the same time of greater pretension, viz., Art Needlework. In order that we may be justified in the use of such a term, we Should be fully aware' of all that is implied in it, and, not satisfied With merely following a passing fashion, possess ourselves of lasting principles by which to regulate our work - principles that at the same time may be a growing source of refined pleasure, as leading to the cultivation of the artistic sense.

Download or read book Modern Embroidery Classic Reprint written by Mary Hogarth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-22 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Embroidery It is generally recognised to-day, and strongly so in the United States, that technical skill is not in itself sufficient to produce work of distinction, but that a basis of good design is equally essential. While this has never been denied in the case of painting and sculpture, there has until recently been a tacit assumption that one or two minor arts, such as that of embroidery, could get along very well without much conscious design, - were, if anything, the better for it. The art of the embroideress was judged rather by the cunning of her fingers than her eye, and anything supremely difficult of execution could be sure of praise, regardless of its meaning or use. Hence the increasingly debased repetition of traditional patterns by means of transfers patterns, not designs. It is not possible to get full satisfaction from work limited to the reproduction of worn-out ideas. Everyone is an artist to a greater or less degree, and it is the aim of this book to help its readers to discover their own powers. The dozens of examples from all over the world which it contains are the work of artists with the needle, but their artistry is of a kind within the reach of all intelligent people. There are hun dreds of ideas here waiting for you to develop them into designs of your own as attrae tive, as useful and as modern as these.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Embroidery in America A history of the needlework of the world would be a history of the domestic accomplishment of the world, that inner story of the existence of man which bears the relation to him of sunlight to the plant. We can deduce from these needle records much of the physical circumstances of woman's long pilgrimage down the ages, of her mental processes, of her growth in thought. We can judge from the character of her art whether she was at peace with herself and the world, and from its status we become aware of its relative importance to the conditions of her life.

The rounded appearance given to them by the direction of the stitches serves to raise them from their backgrounds, and gives, instead of the decorative at design that is desired, one in relief. Stems should be simply worked up and down in Crewel Stitch in the manner shown in Fig. 172. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
