Description
Filling stitches were originally used to enrich whitework and fine linen dowries. This book shows how to apply them on thicker fabrics with colored perlé cotton thread and make more exquisite everyday objects such as bags or pencil boxes. The Florentine Stitch was originally used on stiff canvas. Silvana Fontanelli shows how to use it on regular fabrics to make it more refined and modern.
