Description

In this book, Yvette Stanton reveals one of the styles of Portuguese embroidery: white embroidery with threads drawn from Guimarães. Appeared between 1940 and 1960, this embroidery fell into disuse before returning in force in the 80s.It has since been very popular with fans of embroidery.It generally runs on white or unbleached linen.The principle is as follows: we pull the threads, we make barrettes to make days and we embellish the work with embroidery stitches to make 3D patterns.Other pretty embroidery stitches are used for embellishment: the chain stitch, the eyelet stitch.
