In this book, Margaret Boyles displays her eye for color and patterns her skill as a needlework teacher with 32 complete needlepoint projects, all photographed and charted in full-color. Mixing easy-to-work Bargello stitchery with other needlepoint stitches,she has created a new collection of wonderful original designs for the beginner or the advanced embroiderer: a surprisingly simple 4-way Bargello pillow, a charmingly traditional 18th century candle screen, a bold kaleidoscope-patterned panel suitable for hanging or framing, a dainty floral pincushion. Christmas ornaments, eyeglass cases, and much, much more. Each project is furnished with complete directions for mounting and finishing, and each has the kind of special features we have come to expect from Margaret Boyles, including: 1) Full color close-up photo of each pattern 2) Photos showing alternate color schemes for each design 3) Color stitching diagram - eliminating the need for hard-to-read symbols or numbers 3) Materials checklists 5) Clear step-by-step directions on the same page as the diagram, ISBN13: 9780025143302 ISBN10: 0025143301 Material Type: hardcover
