Easy Bargello: 25 Needlepoint Projects

Description

Easy Bargello is a collection of 25 homeware and gift projects to make which revive the traditional needle point technique of Bargello. Bargello is an easy craft to master as it comprises just one simple straight stitch. Striking patterns form by repeating the stitch in different colours and arrangements. It is not only methodical and mindful but creative too as, once the basics are understood, the reader will be able to design their own patterns.

Rosemary Drysdale grew up in the north of England. After studying textile design at Durham University, Rosemary emigrated to the United States and worked as an embroidery designer. She was at the forefront of the cross-stitch craze in the 1990s, travelling the world teaching workshops and giving demonstrations. She is recognised as a global expert on black work embroidery, as well as a teacher of many other advanced stitching techniques. She lives in East Hampton, NY with her husband.
