Embroidered Textiles
This beautifully illustrated book examines in detail the fascinating symbolism of embroidered motifs and embroidery patterns worldwide.
Each example – Chinese court embroidery or Japanese kimonos; Indian saris or Turkish textiles; Ghanaian banners or Moroccan cushion fabric; Native North American or Mexican needlework – bears its own distinctive designs.

All aspects of embroidery are covered – fabrics, stitches, symbols, protective or decorative embroidery.
