Content : A technique without cut or pulled thread.

This new edition offers readers to discover this technique, perfect for decorating elegant and refined table linens, sheers, garments, clothing, etc.
It is a reference bible with almost 200 stitches and patterns, with written explanations, diagrams and photos of the results.

Also known as "counted-stitch days“ or "threads apart", this technique creates days by simply drawing the fabric threads together. Nothing is cut, nothing is removed. This embroidery technique flourished in 18th-century Europe, particularly in the Dresden region of Saxony. It is the foundation of Dresden embroidery and Schwalm embroidery (Germany).

This new edition precedes the publication of Volume 2, scheduled for the second half of 2024.
