Product Information
Assisi embroidery is a special form of cross-stitch work using a method known as voiding in which the background, rather than the design, is worked. The pattern which remains is then outlined in holbein stitch to give it extra definition. The designs used in this book all originated in Assisi, Italy during the first quarter of this century. They can be used for decorating table and bed linen, furnishings and other decorations. The author provides full instructions on working methods, materials and techniques, and offers advice on using the various patterns. Detailed notes and suggestions also accompany each design.Product Identifiers
