Synopsis
Raised embroidery - a craft form incorporating surface stitchery, needlelace and several other embroidery techniques - was enormously popular in the 17th century and has since enjoyed a revival. Compared with other types of embroidery which lend themselves to geometric patterns or to conveying nature, raised embroidery offers a medium for depicting human life. With many examples of both antique and modern work, the book uses step-by-step photographs to describe the basic techniques of the form, showing how to work from an original photograph or idea through to a completed embroidery. In addition to exploring the history of the subject, the book emphasizes the new range of effects made possible by the advent of new threads and materials, combined with modern embroidery techniques, such as machine embroidery and fabric dyeing.
