Description

No marks or inscriptions. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and an extremely tiny bump to lower front corner. Dust jacket price clipped but not marked or torn or creased. 143pp. Embroidery which is worked over the counted threads of the ground material to produce a pattern has almost as long a history as woven cloth itself. This book covers all the main types of embroidery which are worked in this way. Includes ten complete projects and a wealth of ideas for others.
