Jan 09 Goldwork is my own personal favorite form of embroidery, and here is a sumptuous book of projects in glorious color. It also teaches you from scratch how it is done, and is the eighteenth book in the A-Z series that ties in with Inspirations magazine. There are already quite a few books on the market that initiate embroiders into the world of goldwork, so why is this one special? The obvious answer is that it is aimed at somebody who, although they are already an embroiderer with a good working knowledge of the basics, is not a goldworker. Therefore you can expect some full descriptions of all the methods, complete with photographic stages that are easy to follow. Expect, too, the usual list of items you need, which seems to include everything you are likely to want without a lot of expensive extras-surely the sign of a good craft book. At the back are several attractive projects, designed to put you through your paces and provide heirlooms for the future. This is not one of those primers where you waste your new skills with practice pieces that nobody is going to want to keep. Instead these are timeless pieces that would not have looked out of place in past centuries, but which also appeal to modern tastes. If you are familiar with Inspirations magazine, you will know what to expect. A keeper that is destined to become a goldworker's staple I should think. * Myshelf.com * Dec 08/Jan 09 Goldwork is an exquisite embroidery technique, but many people find the thought of using metal threads a bit daunting. This book removes the fear factor, as the special techniques that are needed to work with the different types of threads are all shown in clear step-by-step photographs. To allow you to practise the techniques, there are instructions for eight designs, ranging from a simple strawberry pincushion to more complex pieces which include some silk embroidery and require a wider range of skills. * Stitch *
