Whether you refer to it as crewel or Jacobean, this free form of surface embroidery has been around for centuries and is still popular among needle artists today. Because of the nature of the fanciful objects and the tradition of using a large variety of stitches in one project, it lends itself to endless creative expression. ... [Blomkamp] shows needle artists how to be creative with fabric, threads, beads, and alternative stitches, borrowing techniques from other forms of needlework, and still producing a product that is typical of the crewel or Jacobean style of embroidery. ..."--Back cover
