Needle Lace Techniques for Hand Embroidery

Over 40 key needle lace embroidery stitches and techniques in one handy and portable stitch book. Hazel Blomkamp has compiled over 40 key needle lace embroidery techniques in one handy and portable stitch book. Working from the Encyclopedia of Needlework published in the late 19th century by the famous T.H. de Dillmont, and based on several stitches Dillmont used, Hazel has devised a book which thoroughly outlines and breaks down the basic needle lace techniques you need to create beautiful embroidered pieces. Each of the 40+ stitches is explained with a clear diagram and step-by-step instructions. All have been detailed on one side of the page only, allowing you to place a magnetic cross-stitch board underneath. You can then use the magnetic rulers that come with the board to mark the row that you are working on, making the instructions easier to follow. The book is wire-bound, allowing the pages to lie flat while you work, and the books notebook-size fits perfectly in a work bag for easy transportation while stitching on the go. With all the stitches needed for needle lace hand embroidery at their fingertips, both new and experienced embroiderers will find inspiration from this invaluable resource.
