Download or read book Victorian Needlework written by Kathryn Ledbetter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-01-06 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marrying two exceptionally popular topics—needlework and women's history—this book provides an authoritative yet entertaining discussion of the diversity and importance of needlework in Victorian women's lives. Victorian Needlework explores these ubiquitous pastimes—their practice and their meaning in women's lives. Covering the period from 1837–1901, the book looks specifically at the crafts themselves examining quilting, embroidery, crochet, knitting, and more. It discusses required skills and the techniques women used as well as the technological innovations that influenced needlework during this period of rapid industrialization. This book is unique in its comprehensive treatment of the topic ranging across class, time, and technique. Readers will learn what needlework meant to "ladies," for whom it was a hobby reflecting refinement and femininity, and discover what such skills could mean as a "suitable" way for a woman to make a living, often through grueling labor. Such insights are illustrated throughout with examples from women's periodicals, needlework guides, pattern books, and personal memoirs that bring the period to life for the modern reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The little-known art of Berlin Work was once the most commonly practiced art form among European women. Pictorial Embroidery in England is the first academic study of both pictorial Berlin Work and its precursor, needlepainting, exploring their cultural status in the 18th and 19th centuries. From enlightenment practices of copying to the development of an industrial aesthetic and the making of the modern amateur, Berlin Work developed as an official knowledge associated with notions of cultural and scientific progress. However, with the advent of the Arts and Crafts movement and modernist aesthetics, Berlin Work was gradually demoted to a craft hobby. Delving into the social, cultural and economic context of English pictorial embroidery, Pictorial Embroidery in England recovers Berlin Work as an art form, and demonstrates how this overlooked practice was once at the centre of cultural life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Embroiderers' Guild collection holds a unique place in the affections of embroidery enthusiasts. The first pieces were donatd by Queen Mary, Patron of the Guild 1924-53, and since then members have been donating their treasured pieces of embroidery, collected from Britain and around the world, to be appreciated by other embroiderers. The Collection has grown dramatically and now contains about 10,000 pieces from many different cultures, housed in the Guild's splendid headquarters in Hampton Court Palace. For the first time, this exceptional book shows an inspiring selection of 150 of the Collection's best pieces, mostly illustrated in superb colour photographs. There are exquisite framents from Chinese court costumes, stunning Turkish sashes and richly patterned Indian shawls, North American beadwork and patchwork can be constrasted with European peasant embroideries, and there is a comprehensive British section spanning four centuries of remarkable work. The Collection is particularly acclaimed for its inspiring contemporary pieces. Each work is described in detail by an acknowledged expert: the type of stitch, thread, fabric and design, and the fascinating social background. This book will undoubtedly become a treasure in itself, invaluable for embroiderers, students and collectors - and a most beautiful gift"--Jacket
