Product Description
From Amazon
In this volume Victoria Adams Brown moves beyond the realm of The Complete Guide to Silk Ribbon Embroidery to incorporate a number of media to enhance her ribbon embroidery. Brown aims for a broad audience that includes quilters, dollmakers, fabric painters, miniaturists, knitters, and crocheters who seek new ways to embellish their work. She employs rubber stamping, stenciling, watercolors, silk painting, and polymer clay adornments to produce good-looking projects that range from wearables to wall hangings. There are clear, concise, step-by-step directions for stitching various animals and flowers, as well as thorough coverage of techniques such as making your own silk ribbon, ribbon dyeing and painting methods, and even burning ribbon into unusual shapes.

Nothing New,
By A Customer
This review is from: New Ribbon Embroidery: "Innovative, Easy Techniques for Embellishing Ribbon Embroidery with Creativity" (Paperback)
This book does not offer new or innovative techniques as stated and the examples demonstrated were not appealing as the cover would lead one to expect. It might serve as a source for begining needlewomen, but there are much better on the market for the price.

A Wealth of Information,
By Anne Hart (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Ribbon Embroidery: "Innovative, Easy Techniques for Embellishing Ribbon Embroidery with Creativity" (Paperback)
This book is unique in that it takes you step by step through not only finished embroidery designs, but also from the very beginning with instructions on how to dye the ribbon yourself (which saves quite a bit of money in the end).It is clear, concise and easy to understand. This book is staple in my crafting library and I continue to reference it time and time again.
