Summary:
Distinctive, with understated color and style, these fresh, contemporary embroideries have many sources of inspiration: ornate Jacobean crewelwork, Indian needlework, and graphic and organic shapes. All feature a lively sense of experimentation with stitching, ranging from guilloche (so effective for borders) to laced running stitches, and combine wool with many other fabrics. Add cool blue "sea waves" to a cushion; autumn leaves to a throw or bag, spirals and pinwheels to button covers, and more!
