Embroiderers recycle for many different reasons: to conserve old pieces of ephemera for the future, to give their work a personal touch, to convey meaning, or simply for economy.
Showcasing work from leading contemporary embroiderers and covering both hand and machine embroidery, this book is packed with ideas for using many different types of salvaged material. Featured materials include fabric, paper, dried flowers, tree bark, plastic, wood and metal waste, and precious personal objects such as broken jewellery or special souvenirs.

perfect little book
I love the colour and texture of this plant fibre paper. Thicker than ordinary paper with a slightly raised texture in parts. Obviously wouldn't suit some art forms with the texture but is great for my purpose making books which can be written or drawn on with acrylic paint pens. Like the choice of neutral colours,
Excellent reference
