This treasury is one of those all-purpose reference books that includes a little bit of everything and a short history of needlework. As the title implies, it emphasizes the "learn-and-make-it" approach with instruction for each stitch or technique alongside illustrations and photos. Included are sections on: embroidery, quilts, rugs, knitting, crochet, tatting, small looms and laces, technical aids. Expansive table of contents. Comprehensive index. The embroidery section includes the following: Crewelwork, basic stitches, ornaments, flower prints, embroidery on ticking, canvas work (needlepoint and cross-stitch), monogramming, openwork, cutwork, drawn thread work, Teneriffe embroidery, Hardanger, fagoting, embroidery on net, smocking, huck embroidery, applique, machine embroidery, and beading. --- Yours in Stitches, Cameo @-->-->--- [EMAIL PROTECTED] <A HREF="http://www.nidlink.com/~ddavaz/margaret/studio/studio.html">http://www.n idlink.com/~ddavaz/margaret/studio/studio.html </A> _______________________________________________________________ Sponsored by Beakers Graphic Designs http://www.probe.net/~beakers/ecsp.htm The Xstitch Home page at http://www.probe.net/~beakers/xshome.htm Mary Joseph - XStitch List Moderator - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Monica Sudds - XStitch List Administrator - [EMAIL PROTECTED] =============================================================== To unsubscribe TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message: unsubscribe XStitch
