Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Successful Embroidery Shop: A Book That Deals With Art Needlework as a Business A good many years ago when fate directed my steps toward the realms of art embroidery, I searched through libraries and book stores for a guide, some sort of handbook or anything that would give definite instructions and information concerning my new trade. But my efforts were in vain - there was nothing, absolutely no book on the market that would tell me a word about the right way to supply the demands of the embroidering public. This condition naturally told me that whatever success I might achieve would be through my own experiences, and consequently I kept my eyes wide open.

Download or read book Needlework Without "Specimens" written by Ellen P. Claydon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Needlework Without "Specimens" The Modern Book of School Needlework AS many books dealing exhaustively with needlework are already in existence, some apology seems needed for the present work, or, at all events, some explanation of the attitude towards the subject here adopted. The preparation of the book has been undertaken partly in response to inquiries for a sewing-book on similar lines to Knitting without Specimens, and partly because the plan it suggests has been proved to have an inspiring effect on needlework teaching. Sewing is an occupation which has lately been the subject of much thoughtful inquiry by teachers and educationists generally, and their investigations have resulted in a desire to obtain from the subject more of living interest, of educational value, and of practical utility. The feeling has been steadily growing that a great deal of purposeless work, and far too much time, labour, and material have been expended on working the isolated, monotonous, and abstract exercises known as Specimens. This dreary plan of approaching the subject has not only failed to kindle that permanent interest in. Needlework which alone is the proof of successful teaching, but it has' often also produced an actual distaste for the subject. Further, the educational value of such a plan was almost negligible. The method of teaching was in complete contradiction to the fact that a child thinks in order to do. The girl had no desired goal to reach, no inspiring motive such as the construction of an article interesting to herself, and therefore the need for thought was reduced to a minimum. The Specimen plan was in contradiction, moreover, to the educational maxim that teaching should proceed from the concrete to the abstract, for it ignored the concrete (i e., the actual garment or article), which was within the sphere of the child's understanding and interest, and not only commenced, but frequently ended with a long series of abstract exercises.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Embroidery in America A history of the needlework of the world would be a history of the domestic accomplishment of the world, that inner story of the existence of man which bears the relation to him of sunlight to the plant. We can deduce from these needle records much of the physical circumstances of woman's long pilgrimage down the ages, of her mental processes, of her growth in thought. We can judge from the character of her art whether she was at peace with herself and the world, and from its status we become aware of its relative importance to the conditions of her life.

Download or read book Art in Needlework written by Lewis F. Day and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharpen up your needlework and tighten your stitching techniques with this detailed and highly effective instruction book. Those looking for how to improve their embroidery skills should dive straight in. Art in Needlework: A Book About Embroidery is an instructional originally published in 1900 and written by Lewis F. Day and Mary Buckle. As the name suggests, this book is all about the techniques and materials one must master in order to become an expert in the art of embroidery. Art in Needlework begins with a series of chapters on specific stitches used in embroidery. From canvas and crewel stiches to herringbone and buttonhole stitches, all of the basics and a great deal of the advanced stitches are detailed here. Large black and white images accompany the text, greatly assisting those who are oriented more towards visual learning. The book progresses from a detailed description of specific stitches to a discussion of the decisions faced by an embroiderer and the big-picture techniques to be used. Chapters focus on selecting the appropriate stitch, creating outlines, shading techniques, and much more. In the author's own words: "The custom has been, since woman learnt to kill time with the needle, to think of embroidery too much as an idle accomplishment. It is more than that. At the very least it is a handicraft: at the best it is an art... [This book] sets forth to show what decorative stitching is, how it is done, and what it can do."

Download or read book An Embroidery Book (Classic Reprint) written by Anne Knox Arthur and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Embroidery Book Most people have a superstition that in knowledge of a multitude Of stitches lies the whole mystery Of needle work. This is emphatically not the case. There really is no mystery about stitches they are but the letters Of the needleworker's alphabet, and the words Of her lan guage - to be used according to her Own ideas. One may embroider poems; another may embroider prayers and praises for her church; another may beautify a fair woman's garment or sing a little song in stitches for a baby's robe; yet another may be like a treatise on sur gery, repairing and restoring that which has been damaged. But needlework does not exist for the stitches. It is the stitches Which - as they are well or ill-used express the worker, and, if she is a wise Worker, she can find out for herself most Of the stitches she needs. Nor is it necessary to be at great expense in needlework, indeed, for those who take it up as a recreative craft half the interest may lie in the fact that no material is too common or too homely to be made into something fitting and, therefore, beautiful - since the truest art is to make a thing pleasing to the eye and yet entirely suited to the purpose.
