As Sarah has been leading us through exploring one stitch at a time she has been acquiring more books about modern embroidery.
At our last meeting she mentioned Creative Stitches for Contemporary Embroidery by Sharon Boggon and Modern Hand Stitching by Ruth Chandler.
Both are clear bright reference books about a series of stitches, how to work them and then combine them for a modern interpretation.
Whilst these are her own books she will be placing them on the group library app and they may be borrowed by members of this group.
Anna also told us about The Fabric of Civilisation – how textiles made the world by Virginia Postrel . A surprising history of the world covering trade, politics, dyes, agriculture & microbiology.
All are available from good book shops or online sources.
