NEW Ribbon and StumpWork Books
Products
This is the book that has replaced Di van Niekerk's very popular A Perfect World in Ribbon Embroidery and Stumpwork. I was upset when they stopped publishing "Perfect World", despite the silly title, it was a great and gorgeous book. This book is less lush but more technical, more the book to teach you these wonderful stitching techniques. A better book. Ribbon Embroidery & Stumpwork techniques & designs are easily adaptable to Needlepoint Canvas or Needlepoint on Woven Fabric. Ribbon Embroi...
I know, I have many of these Silk Ribbon stitching books here in my web store, but in my own defense, these books have gorgeous projects, beautiful stitching. If I could add another line of threads to NewNeedlepoint.com, it would be Silk Ribbons. I would love to kit with them, use them with other threads. Oh well...... Back to my subject. The flowers, made with Silk Ribbon, in this book are spectacular. There is quite a bit of technique here. The flowers have texture and depth. Many stand out...
I have way too many copies of some of the wonderful out-of-print and rare Needlepoint books I stock. I have added 7 more titles to them, 4 of them Bargello books, and significantly lowered the price of all of the others.
Overstock New Books are 20% off, minimum, or more.
Take advantage of my acquisitive ways.
Ann Cox is also the author of the book A-Z of Silk Ribbon Flowers (which I just happen to also have in stock). It is an excellent book and has been very popular here. I first looked at t...
A new book by master teacher and silk ribbon embroidery expert Di van Niekerk with assistance from Toody Cassidy.This book is from The Search Press Textile Artist Series.Silk ribbon embroidery on felted fablers is new to me but the examples shown in this book are wonderful. The Art of Felting & Silk Ribbon Embroidery begins with an introduction by Di, ib it she quotes Gail Sheedy "Creativity can be described as letting go of certainties". I agree.There are complete instructions on felting...
Another amazing, not to mention beautiful, book by Di, her books and her skills continue to amaze me. The flower Fairies in this book are based on the beloved Flower Fairies book by Cicely Mary Baker. To quote (and paraphrase) from the back cover: "For the first time, five of Cicely Mary Baker's beautiful fairies are translated in to exquisite Ribbon and Stumpwork Embroideries. With numerous new ideas and techniques, this book will appeal to both beginners and advanced stitchers. Easy to follow...
This book is one of the series of excellent stitchery books in the Milner Craft Series published by Sally Milner Publishing in Australia. I found the name for this stitchery technique confusing when I first read about it but basically, it is just raised thread of slightly 3 Dimensional needlework. Quoting (and paraphrasing) from the back cover "This book is intended for the wider audience and seeks to encourage new and more experienced stitchers to enjoy the Dimensional, Colorful and Exciting...
Helen Dafter is the author of many very good Silk Ribbon stitching book for the Milner Craft Series of Books from Australia including another book listed here on NewNeedlepoint.com, The Little Book of Silk Ribbon Flowers. Reading from the back cover, there are 12 major ribbon embroideries and associated smaller flower studies in Floral Interpretations for Silk Ribbon. The flowers are inspired by photographs taken by the author, Helen Dafter, over the years and by Watercolors of the flowers pain...
am always attracted to books about creating gorgeous flowers in needlepoint. I am sure that is my gardener's soul coming out. The stitched flowers on the cover of this book got my attention (and I am not that easily impressed).To quote (and paraphrase) from the back cover:"Eleven lovely flowers to embroider, including roses, hollyhocks, delphiniums, heartsease, violets, honeysuckle, English Daisies, geraniums, lady's ear drops, forget-me-nots, and sweet Alice.""Clear instructions are provided...
This is a gorgeous little book with some fine examples of stitched Ribbon Flowers. The book measures just 6 X 6.5 inches and the projects in it seem small, the size could easily be increased when they are stitched. The author, Helen Dafter, is the author of many other books in RibbonWork for the excellent Milner Series of Stitchery book published by Sally Milner in Australia. I list another of her books here, as well. The book includes complete direction to stitch, including threads & ribbons...
When I ordered this book, I did not know what it's specific contents were. I rarely know more then a short blurb from the publisher and a picture of the cover. The Simple Art of Ribbon Design is in some ways similar to the book The A-Z of Silk Ribbon Flowers I listed earlier today. Similar but different. There are Silk Ribbon Flower instructions here but the book goes a step further. It shows you how to use them in actual ways. You will find clear instruction on using your flowers as Ribbon F...
I had not seen any books by Christen Brown before but I will be on the look-out for them now. This is a very well done book about creating flowers from ribbon, using ribbon work techniques.
The subtitle for this book is
Beautiful Designs for Flowers, Leaves & More.
Quoting from the back cover:
"130 + exciting floral elements to sew from ribbon and lace"
"Mix and match petals, centers and greenery"
"Learn beginner-friendly construction tips from ribbonwork master Christen Brown"
"Step-b...
Another terrific book by well-known needlework author Judith Baker Montano. Silk Ribbon Embroidery is done in a slightly different way or format or something. It begins, of course, with the Table of Contents, which is impressive. There is a section on the background & history of the art. Then there is a section called *Profiles* where we are introduced to 12 women who use Silk Ribbon Embroidery in many different ways, in their needlework. The projects in this book are the work of these tale...
