Embroidery and Animals

Jan Messent covers all aspects of design for those wishing to make animals a main theme in their embroidery: where to look for ideas, how to record them, and how to translate them into decorative and practical designs: these designs can then be interpreted in numerous embroidery techniques such as canvaswork, black work, quilt and applique. Book includes line illustrations of animals, many of them stylized and all drawn embroiders in mind.
