About the Author

Barbara Hammet is a designer who began her career teaching arts and crafts and history of art. Embroidery provided her with the opportunity to combine this knowledge with her interest in the colours and textures of fabrics and threads. She runs her own design business, Wessex Embroidery Collection, selling kits based on historic designs. This is her third book to be published by David & Charles: the earlier two are The Art of William Morris and Art Nouveau Cross Stitch. Barbara lives in Winchester.
