Twenty four needlework projects inspired by objects in the collection of the Peabody Essex Museum, Salem. Massachusetts; they include embroidery, needlepoint, cross-stitch, cross stitch, counted thread, whitework, beading and tassel making.
The joint efforts of the Peabody Essex Museum, the American Embroiders' Guild, and PieceWork magazine have resulted in this lavish collection of stunning contemporary needlework projects based on four centuries of American embroidery. Motifs have been taken from this historical collection and translated into fashion and home accessories and heirloom keepsakes, complete with step-by-step instructions. Weaving together women's domestic history with contemporary design techniques, the 24 projects include scarves, shawls, purses, and table runners. The history of each piece and its maker is included, along with photographs of the original pieces.
