Leading embroidery authors Valerie Campbell-Harding and Maggie Grey translate the richness of Celtic imagery into fabric, textiles and stitched work using machine embroidery. The visual Celtic elements from fine manuscripts, metalwork and stone sculpture - spirals, knots, plaits, lettering, interlacings and meanders - are brought to life through designs that start simply and build up to more complex pieces. The book gives detailed information on the design process, then progresses to stitch, with plenty of new ideas as well as new slants on old favourites. A final chapter shows you how to put together finished pieces and - should it all go wrong - how to redeem an uninteresting piece. The authors encourage readers not just to copy existing designs but, through experimentation and stitch samples, to make the work their own.
