At last a book that tells you everything you ever wanted to know about stitching – but never liked to ask … now you can learn the tips, tricks and wisdom of generations collected in one easy guide for you to enjoy….
Now, how to stitch is, at first sight, a very simple skill to master and so many people (non-stitchers of course) simply don’t understand how easy it is to become obsessive about floss, thread and fabric. They don’t know how complicated and totally absorbing the simple act of pushing a pointy stick attached to some string through a piece of fabric can become. Who has time for cleaning, laundry and weeding the borders when there is the elusive bullion stitch to master, that tapestry or cross-stitch chart to complete and perhaps a top to quilt?
Non-stitchers don’t understand that although pushing a pointy stick through fabric might at first sight seem very simple and boringly repetitive, actually there is much more to it than that. Consider the world of creativity that is revealed once you open your eyes to the possibilities … there’s applique, quilting, tapestry and dressmaking…. Not to mention Hardanger, blackwork, stumpwork and cross stitch. The world of stitching will take more than a lifetime to explore."
Essential tips for storing your thread (ignore these at your peril or you too may have a tangled mess of floss at the bottom of your work bag!!)
A whole section of stitch diagrams – some familiar, some much less so – but you’ll find them all so easy to work.
