If you wish to create more neutral, yet still visible and decorative repairs and upgrades on your clothes, and enjoy hand sewing, then this book might be just what you're looking for.
Whitework incorporates both darning, as well as small and large holes, and larger areas that are cut away completely and filled with tulle/netting with stitches. An exciting and fun starting point for trying out traditional crafts on clothes with damage and stains. And of course, exciting to learn even if you don't want to use it for repair!
The book contains a comprehensive stitch guide and guidance on materials and equipment, as well as how to develop your own designs, mount fabric, and transfer motifs. There are clear step-by-step pictures and diagrams where needed, both for stitches and various cutwork techniques. A real eye-opener for how much you can achieve with needle and thread!
