Product Description
Mountmellick is a style of embroidery dating from around 1825 and originating from the town of Mountmellick in County Laois, Ireland. The embroidery is always white on white with a floral motif interpreted in a highly textured stitching. Mountmellick Embroidery: Inspired by Nature contains 15 beautiful projects created to appeal to a wide range of contemporary tastes. Each project has been especially designed for this book and is graded from beginner or intermediate to advance level. The book contains easy-to-follow step-by-step stitch and knitting instructions, project instructions, clear black and white diagrams, and a colour photograph of each finished project. There are two chapters of projects: one with traditional style designs and applications, and the other with traditional designs with contemporary applications. Whatever the reader's experience or tastes, Mountmellick Embroidery: Inspired by Nature has a range of projects to suit any creative desires.
