Small Scale Embroidery: In Cross Stitch and Other Techniques

Select Condition 
Book Overview
With designs that range from the modernist Yellow Birds to the Celtic-inspired Mythical Bird, and from traditional samplers to a jewel-like panel based on medieval stained glass, there are styles and subjects to suit every taste. And because these projects are small scale, they are perfect for trying out new techniques. Most of the charted designs are worked as framed pictures and, because presentation of these exquisite miniatures is so important, great attention is paid to finishing and framing. All the designs are extremely versatile and there are ideas for adapting each project into a range of delightful gifts, including cards, pin cushions, pot lids, wall hangings, and bed linen borders.

I got this book a while ago and never get tired of perusing it. It gives all us stitchers with full walls a new avenue for displaying projects: go small! These tiny treasures vary from simple one-color silhouettes to complicated samplers and pictures. They could be made full-size, if you wanted, but the sheer leap from the routine is very appealing. Brenda Keyes is a talented author. It's never risky to get a book she's written. Nice book to buy.
