Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working from the Encyclopedia of Needlework by T.H. de Dillmont, originally published in the late 19th century, Hazel Blomkamp has compiled all of the key needle lace embroidery techniques into one handy and portable stitch book. The book begins with a basic guide to needle lace techniques, based on several stitches Dillmon used which Hazel has broken down into easy steps. Over 40 needle lace stitches are then described, each with a clear diagram and step-by-step instructions, and a photograph of one of hazel's beautiful piece to provide inspiration. All have been detailed on one side of the page only, allowing the reader to place a magnetic cross-stitch board underneath. They can then use the magnetic rulers that come with the board to mark the row that they are working on, making the instructions easier to follow. The book is wire-bound, allowing the pages to lie flat while you work, and the book's notebook-size fits perfectly in a workbag for easy transportation while stitching on the go. With all the stitches needed for needle lace hand embroidery at their fingertips, both new and experienced embroiderers will find inspiration from this invaluable resource.
Download or read book Needle made Laces written by Pat Earnshaw and published by Ward Lock Limited.. This book was released on 1988 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Earnshaw, a British lace collector and lace-making instructor, has compiled a clear, compact, engrossing account of how to make lace with needle and thread. Each of 12 chapters describes a distinctive lace, its history, materials and stitches, then provides a pattern with clear directions and diagrams. Earnshaw begins with the two basic methods: embroidered lace, crafted from a woven fabric by manipulating its threads, and Reticella, constructed from scratch with needle and thread, working from a drawn pattern. (Venice emerged as Reticella's production center in 1650; Venetian artisans employed 60 variations of detached buttonhole stitch to render flowing designs of plants and flowers.) After 1700 the hollie stitch was developed in England to make a dense lace of rows of close stitches interrupted by tiny gaps (dropped stitches), creating designs of great subtlety. Inevitably, time-saving techniques, such as darning stitches and tapes, were substituted for the solid areas of buttonhole stitches. Knotted laces, wheel laces, darned net and fabric applique on gauze or net introduced other techniques."--PW.

Download or read book Renaissance Patterns for Lace Embroidery and Needlepoint written by Federico Vinciolo and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 1971-01-01 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old Venetian lace has always been considered one of the high points of the textile arts, what with its imaginative design, technical brilliance, and universal appeal to all lands and times. It was the ancestor of most of the important laces that have since been made in Europe, and surviving specimens are the treasured possessions of the great museums of the world. Federico Vinciolo is one of the masters within this art. A leading Venetian designer, he was summoned in France to the court of Henry II, probably by Catherine de Medici, where he had the monopoly on manufacturing lace neck ruffs. In 1587 Vinciolo published a collection of his best patterns and designs, Les singuliers et nouveaux pourtraicts, which went through more than a dozen printings in France and Italy. It remains one of the basic books in the history of lace. For the modern needleworker who wishes to recapture the charm of this antique lace, Vinciolo's book offers 98 plates of fine patterns and designs in various techniques: needlepoint, darned netting, point coupé, counted thread work, and others. These include geometric forms, exuberant treatment of classical motives, Italian and Levantine designs, and mush else that the modern worker, able to pick out a pattern, can re-create. Most of this material is nowhere else available. Vinciolo's designs are also of interest to the graphic artist who wishes delicate yet forceful textile images.
