Download or read book Modern Embroidery written by Laura Strutt and published by CICO Books. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colorful and contemporary embroidery for the modern stitcher. There’s something magical about embroidery–some floss, some stitches, some time, and suddenly a plain piece of material is transformed into a picture, a pattern, or a piece of geometric art. Embroidery today is moving away from the traditional to the modern, with motifs including everything from cacti to crystals, simple white stitching on colored cloth, decorative stitches on denim, and mandala patterns as wall art. Laura Strutt has designed 35 modern makes taking you from the simplest of stitches to more sophisticated techniques. Each make has full step-by-step instructions and there are colored charts where needed for you to recreate the look exactly—but of course you can always choose your own colors if you prefer. With tips on everything from finishing pieces to color theory, and a techniques section covering all the stitches you will need to know, you can hand-embroider any of these projects with confidence.

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.
