Synopsis

Created with evident enjoyment, the book draws on research and embroidery to explore jewel-like colours alongside gold metallic threads and glittering beads. Sixteen projects are included, with a range of sizes and levels of complexity, offering a varied approach to stumpwork and raised embroidery.

Each design takes its cue from an example of Islamic art, referencing pottery, textiles, manuscripts or jewellery from Turkey, Syria, Persia, Arabia or India. With 100 colour illustrations, it is presented as a visually guided craft title for readers interested in stumpwork and goldwork embroidery.
