Summary

It really is possible to 'paint' a picture with embroidery, particularly when using the exquisite French knot. As Christine Harris says, it is amazing that such depth and perspective can be achieved with the use of just one stitch. With the techniques shown in this book, the scenes become vibrant and alive - more 'needle art' than embroidery.
