Kirsten Glasbrook demonstrates the ancient art of tapestry weaving using wool yarn, fine linen and cotton on simple rectangular frames with notches, or purpose-built looms for larger tapestries.

Readers will learn how to create horizontal and diagonal lines, curves, motifs, shading, outlines, borders and more.

A recommander a ceux qui veulentbs initier et aux autres
Excellent livre pour s initier a tapisserie tissage et aller plus loin si on veut Des images pas a pas et même si on a pas une maîtrise totale de l anglais C est bien illustré et on comprend avec un dictionnaire pour les mots essentiels en tête de chapitre De plus il n existe pas en français a ma connaissance de livre similaire Je le recommande vivement. J'ai réalisé le sampler sans problème ( en utilisant un cadre en vous tout simple et du cordeau de maçon 1,5 cm et des restes de laine ) et sans surprise de plus son prix n est pas extravagant et on utiles du matériel peu coûteux J ajoute que j aime beaucoup ce que fais l auteur du livre (blog)
