Please see my blog at http://kimikosews.livejournal.com/51358.html for the full review. Ms. Carey has looked at the bags, read the sources, and come to essentially the same conclusions that I did over the last 10 years, while I wrote my book on Sweet Bags. Hers reached publication first. What's not to like? She includes some sweet bags that are not shown in every other book. There are some very large, very close up pictures of bags, so that one can see the structures she talks about. We have different names for some of the stitches and structures. We reached the same conclusions on many aspects. We generally asked the same questions, and we got the same answers. It's a good book. *sigh* sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
An Investigation into 16th and 17th Century Needlework. Jacqui Carey has been meticulously analysing English textiles that have survived from the late-sixteenth to early-seventeenth century. The object-based research revealed a range of 'lost' needlework stitches, and this book aims to re-establish an understanding of these stitches by looking specifically at sweet bags. These highly decorative little purses provide the focal point for looking at the context, structure and potential methods of some needlework dating from the Elizabethan, Jacobean and later Stuart periods. Beautifully illustrated, with full references, this book will be a welcome addition to both the textile historian and the practical craftsperson. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
