Creative Embroidery with Rajmahal |


Few fibers rival silk in terms of sheer brilliance of color and versatility, yet the natural product is often costly to buy and impractical to use.
A compromise is at hand through the wondrous array of Art Silk threads from Victorian-based company Rajmahal.
Complementing the range are the company's Shisha glass mirrors and Sadi metallic embellishments.
The adaptability of these exquisite products is highlighted in Your Comprehensive Guide to Creative Embroidery, showcasing the work of 10 leading needlework designers from Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and South Africa. Dorothy Clarke, Helen Dafter, Patricia Davis, Vivienne Garforth, Doris Gordon, Jean Barry, Vivienne Holmes, Jenni Kirkham, Maisie Jarratt and Irene Junkuhn have contributed a dazzling collection of creative embroidery projects to entice you.
Lustrous Rajmahal products are used to perfection in floral embroideries and Cross-stitch patterns and as a stylish surface decoration on colorful pincushions, trinket boxes and dainty evening bags.
Full instruction, complete with detailed materials lists, are provided in this guide.
