Embroiderers recycle for many different reasons: to conserve old pieces of ephemera for the future, to give their work a personal touch, to convey meaning, or simply for economy.
Showcasing work from leading contemporary embroiderers and covering both hand and machine embroidery, this book is packed with ideas for using many different types of salvaged material. Featured materials include fabric, paper, dried flowers, tree bark, plastic, wood and metal waste, and precious personal objects such as broken jewellery or special souvenirs.
