Book Reviews of 155 Smocking Designs
Book Review: Excellent Pattern/Plate resource
Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoy this book. The plates are clear and easy to read. The breadth of pictures in the picture smocking areas is incredible. I do wish it had more geometric patterns, though. This book has been a great resource for choosing elements to combine into my own designs.One warning -- I do NOT like the color choices made for the photographs at all. However, I've never yet used the colors specified in a smocking pattern or plate.
Summary of 155 Smocking Designs
?Smocking has been revived as the interest in hand-decorated surfaces increases...Page after page of patterns...each with color graph photograph of finished design, and written directions... include(s) pointers on fabrics, stitch instructions, and symbols....Patterns reflect popular favorites, holidays, and ease of implementation. Easter becomes an egg; animals include domestic and wild; and fruits, vegetables, toys, and people showcase familiar objects?apples, hyacinths, bicycles, and more.??Booklist.
