It has a great combination of history and modern techniques. It's instructional, but also inspirational.
A lot of embroidery books have diagrams of stitching that are hard to follow. The diagrams in this book are very clear and helpful. The book has a good selection of blackwork stitches. Pro||
"This is not a project book, but the clear instructions and photographs of superb embroideries worked by the author and other RSN apprentices are sure to inspire you to come up with your own ideas." —Stitch (April 2011)
The Royal School of Needlework teaches hand embroidery to the highest standard, developing techniques in new and innovative ways. This series of Essential Stitch Guides provides expert tuition on a variety of techniques. In this guide to blackwork, Graduate Apprentice and tutor, Becky Hogg, shows how to develop many different patterns from the basic blackwork stitches, using detailed instructions and beautiful examples of traditional and contemporary embroideries.
