Modern Country: A New Approach to Country Stlye

In her stunning new book, fabric designer Mary Norden shows you how to make "country" contemporary. Drawing from the colors, patterns, and textures of nature, she has restated these elements in her elegantly simple, modern interiors. In Modern Country, a dozen projects bring traditional crafts into contemporary focus: chic, monochromatic cushions rendered in classic country knits; stylishly simple table linens appliqud with faded floral borders; smooth, linen-covered pillows; a rug of softly-textured tweed. Beautifully enhanced with 250 color photos, Modern Country is a glorious sourcebook of instruction and inspiration. Mary Norden is a highly successful textile designer whose clients include Ralph Lauren, Liberty of London, Dior, and Yves St Laurent; among her books are Decorating with Wool and Decorative Embroidery.
