TT778.C7.S53Description
This isn't your grandmother's crewel, but a hip, contemporary update. These projects are easy, too, because crewel has no counting, no grids, and no cross-stitch--just beautiful free-form embroidery. A basics chapter explains how to do the different stitches, ranging from French knots to laid filling. Novices will swiftly move on to the 30 practice designs, all accompanied by easy instructions and diagrams, and a dozen projects. Make a card or keepsake scrapbook embellished with stitched motifs, colorful totes, table runners, and an elegant triptych.Lexicon
