A renewal in prints (upholstery fabric, etc.): Vichy, Bayadère stripes, Toile de Jouy, Jacquard, plaids, damassé… Fabric manufacturers have successfully updated their patterns. Traditionally, embroidery is done on solid-color fabric (cotton or linen). In this book, printed fabric finally gets its chance to be embroiderers’ “canvas”: this book explains how to incorporate an embroidery pattern onto a piece of fabric that already has its own pattern. The book is divided into 4 chapters about different types of prints: o geometricals: stripes, Vichy checks, polka dots and more o faux solids: jacquards, relief prints, piqués and more o figuratives: animals, Toile de Jouy, floral prints and more o classics: liberty prints, paisley and more A renewal of embroidery pattern Timeless patterns updated for today’s tastes: flowers, animals, typographic patterns; ornamental, figurative, geometric and ethnic prints and more = a veritable databank of patterns (more than 100 embroidery patterns). 14 projects to make with these patterns: a handbag, cushion, lampshade, wreath, tableau and more: embroidery finally steps into the world of contemporary fashion and deco. Quick, modern embroidery Embroidering lines and outlines (crewel stitch, backstitch, etc.). = quick embroidery patterns. Few filled-in shapes (straight stitch, long & short stitch, Kensington stitch etc.). = easy embroidery, accessible to everyone.
