Embroidered birds and their habitats
Uiterlijk 15 november in huis
A stunning, high-level embroidery book on birds, by Judy Wilford, one the world’s leading embroiderers.
Multi-talented visual artist Judy Wilford invites you to share in her enduring passions: the arts, the land that surrounds her, and the birds she has observed and embroidered over many years.
Inspiring and practical in equal measure, this book showcases dozens of Judy's lifelike finished embroideries alongside clear, practical advice. You will learn what embroidery materials and additional equipment you need; how to research and choose a suitable bird and its habitat to embroider; and how to draw up a working design that best displays your chosen bird and its place in the wider landscape.
Two complete projects walk you through every embroidery process, from initial inspiration through to completed artwork design, allowing you to pick up all the skills and techniques needed to complete a hand-stitched, low-relief panel.
The book also includes finishing techniques such as mounting and framing and a stitch glossary that includes Judy's own adapted stitches. This book is an essential addition to any embroiderer's – or bird-lover's – bookshelf.
