  Inspired by the rich diversity of pattern and colour found in traditional textiles from around the world, leading needlepoint designer Stella Knight has produced a range of stunning creations that will add character and style to any interior. As well as providing clear full colour charts to follow, the book offers insight into the origins of each design, placing it in cultural context. These patterns will satisfy a range of tastes and abilities: from the delicate florals on a Croation cushion cover to the bold African lines of a Masai motif bell-pull. * Five major areas of cultural and artistic significance are covered: Asia, Africa, Europe, America and the Middle East. * These needlepoint patterns will suit both the experienced needlepointer and the newcomer to this rewarding craft. * Vibrant colour photographs of each completed project offer inspiration.
