 Item #B01101 (Book)out of print and sold out Beautiful Bargello by Joyce Petschek Bargello, which originated in the 16th-century Italy, is an elegant style of needlework that became popular throughout Europe and America during the 17th and 18th centuries. An extremely simply style to master, it consists of an established pattern of straight stitches repeated in different color sequences across the piece of work. In this richly illustrated book, Joyce Petschek has combined the formal elegance of Bargello with her skill as a colorist to create a dazzling collection of designs, from cushions, chair seats, and lamp shades to hats and vests. The accompanying charts and text clearly explain how to create all 26 projects, which are worked on ordinary canvas and use a variety of threads, including silk and wool. This is a glorious guide that breathes new life into a centuries-old form of needlework. 144 pages hardback. |
