CONTENTS: It is embroidery patterns inspired by wrought iron designs. In a search for a new and unusual embroidery theme, another form of handwork, indeed one of the oldest and most traditional-Wrought Iron- has been the inspiration.
In this book of embroideries the needle, fabric and thread of the embroideress have replaced the hammer, anvil and file. However, the style of design and pattern is still the same. The Scrolls and Coils so skilfully fashioned in metal have a close affinity to the flowing patterns of this free-style embroidery. The heavier forms of wrought iron develop most successfully into the counted thread embroidery techniques. Iron On transfers included.
Alternative sketch suggestions and lay-outs are given for each free style embroidery design to give the embroideress greater scope. All the wrought iron designs used are traditional and authentic and stem from Italy, Spain, France and Belgium.
NOTE!! These are PATTERNS only not the finished product nor the materials to complete the projects.
