Your House in Needlepoint

by SusanHigginson (Author)

Synopsis

A needlepoint picture of one's home is an instant heirloom, as well as a satisfying creative project. For people who have worked needlepoint kits but want to progress to designing their own pictures, this book offers ideas and practical step-by-step guidance. It contains detailed instructions for converting a photograph into a working diagram and then onto canvas. Advice on choosing materials, appropriate colours and stitches is accompanied by diagrams and photographs of worked stitches. 18 representative types of house, shown in colour and ranging from a Lakeland cottage to a Georgian terraced house, a modern bungalow to a Victorian villa, are offered as inspiration for those who enjoy needlepoint to create a decorative record of their own homes. The author's previous books include Needlepoint Miniatures and The Book of Needlepoint Stitches .
