The Essential Embroidery Book teaches you everything you need to know about the basic genres and techniques of embroidery. It provides an overview of tools, materials, and methods for both hand and machine embroidery. The book also offers plenty of inspiration for new uses of embroidery, including embroidered blouses, bags, and tea cozies, as well as how to embroider with beads, sequins, and mirrors, make appliqués, create pulled thread work, and much more. You’ll also find a guide on how to design your own patterns and transfer them to fabric.
The book is written by Trine Andresen, who is an Associate Professor in embroidery and cultural subjects in the degree program for professional bachelor’s in textile design, craftsmanship, and communication at Håndarbejdets Fremme.
