The Design Collective: Pincushions
Description
Introducing a brand new series of books from Inspirations Studios – The Design Collective. In this first volume, Pincushions are given a makeover.
Each designer was given the same brief. There were no rules. No guidelines. The only criteria: the final project must house pins and needles. The result? The most imaginative, clever and artistic pincushions you have ever seen! The book features 12 projects:
- Ivy by Margaret Light – trailing stems of ivy with flowers and berries surround a hand-quilted circlet within a square design
- Celest Fig by Christine Burton – three-dimensional fig with beaded blackwork designs creating texture and shading
- Daisies & Forget-me-nots by Ana Mallah – two enchanting pincushions, surrounded by pretty stumpwork flowers
- Sweet Strawberry by Victoria Laine – colourful strawberry motif and background in counted thread embroidery with metal thread highlights
- Fragments by Anna Scott – Jacobean-style flower and buds in vibrant reds and blues adorn a small, pleated pillow top
- Norwegian Lace by Di Kirchner – Delicate and lace-like square of Hardanger atop a linen base, finished with a wrapped bead
- Sacred Flower by Margaret Lee – Symbolism-rich lotus design worked with gleaming filament silks using Chinese embroidery techniques
- Nodding Greenhood by Alison Cole – An Australian bushland scene brought to life with a stumpwork study of native orchids on a wooden base
- Cho Mon by Jane Nicholas – A perfect trio of stylised, goldwork butterflies form a circular shape on a pillow design
- Sweet William by Hazel Blomkamp – Sparkling, three-dimensional beaded flowers and leaves surround a lattice on a circular design
- Deerfield by Deborah Love – Graceful buds and stems worked in harmonious blue shades, finished with a beaded edge
