Riassunto

Assisi embroidery is a special form of cross stitch work and uses a method known as "voiding", in which the background, rather than the design is worked. The pattern which remains is then outlined in Holbein stitch to give it extra definition. The designs in this book all originated in Assisi during the first quarter of this century, and can be used for decorating table linen, bed linen, furnishings, and other items. The author provides full instructions on working methods, material and techniques, and offers advice on using patterns. Detailed notes and suggestions also accompany each design.
