Description

From an acclaimed embroidery designer and bestselling author of Mystical Stitches, an accessible how-to guide full of original stitch designs that will inspire readers to pick up a needle and thread.

Written for all levels of stitchers, The Art of Embroidery Design teaches the value of establishing a creative practice, with hands-on sketching and stitching exercises to help anyone build confidence in their design skills. Author Christi Johnson provides a workshop experience for readers looking to start from scratch. She breaks the design process down into approachable steps, including:

-achieving a range of textural effects.

Dozens of colorful photos of the author's own work are accompanied by historical examples from artisans in Mexico, India, Peru, China, Nigeria, and more, as well as profiles of some of the most inventive contemporary embroidery artists-it's a complete workshop in a book.
