Velvet has always been viewed as a luxury fabric associated with richness and wealth and can be made from a number of natural and synthetic fibers. It has often been reserved for special ritualistic occasions and goes in and out of fashion. It makes a statement, feels gorgeous and can be fashioned into wondrous garments and furnishings.
Because it has such a strong and compelling surface, using it sympathetically in embroideries can be a challenge. By using some of the techniques in this book, you will learn to enjoy and develop a fascination for velvet.
