Stumpwork Embroidery Techniques and Projects by Helen Richman is a comprehensive guide to this highly decorative embroidery technique. Learn how to create your own piece using raised and padded stitches, rich in texture, with detailed instructions and over 900 photographs to illustrate the process. The book begins with an introduction to materials, equipment, and tools, before moving on to a wide range of stitches and techniques, including combining stumpwork with other embroidery methods. Ten projects showcase how to use these stitches in designs, from decorative motifs to more intricate human figures. Practical advice is also included on working with threads, stretching and preparing fabrics for your project.
