Back Cover InformationUsing hand-painted silk backgrounds, detailed step-by-step photography and just two basic machine stitches, Alison Holt shows how to create a stunning range of exquisite landscapes and gardens - from water gardens and floral borders to colorful meadows and woodlands. About the AuthorAlison Holt studied Fine Art, Textiles and Embroidery at Goldsmiths College, London where she experimented with many textile techniques before choosing machine embroidery as a medium. She started to explore her love of gardens and the countryside through embroidery, finding it the perfect vehicle to express the various textures and forms she finds so fascinating. She now teaches machine embroidery, silk painting and surface decoration and runs courses at her studio. She also works to commission and exhibits her embroideries in Britain and America. Her work is sold to private collections all over the world.
