The Stumpwork, Goldwork and Surface
Embroidery
Beetle Collection
By Jane Nicholas
Beetles are beautiful-and in this book Jane shares her methods
of using beautiful threads and fabrics-and beetle wings to create
beautiful designs and projects in many forms of embroidery. Some
are simplicity itself--an elegant beetle shape embroidered in
glittering metallic threads reflect3000 the iridescent colors
of the wing cases set in a paperweight, for example.
Others are delightful floral pictures in which a glittering
stumpwork beetle plays a starring role
Lavishly illustrated in color, this book with detailed step-by-step
instructions accompanied by numerous explanatory diagrams is
a fascinating addition to the working bookshelf of anyone interested
in dimensional and textured embroidery.
