Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Consider the term embroidery in its broadest sense. French artist (and author of The Machine Embroiderer's Workbook, 1992, and Encyclopedia of Machine Embroidery, 2003) Val Holmes re-creates the 1970s concept of recycling into a host of techniques and ideas and a handful of projects that experienced stitchers will welcome. It's heavy on the ideas, such as dismantling an embellished garment and reassembling it for a more perfect, uniquely decorated fit; or the use of patchwork in inventing items fabricated out of plastics or metal. It also emphasizes a variety of techniques, many taking advantage of miracle materials like Aquabond (a water-soluble fabric with one sticky side) and crystal strands, synthetic fibers that fuse together when ironed. Full-color photographs of finished recyclables enhance the half-dozen projects--a cushion, makeup bag, concertina book--giving needleworkers inspiration that will last a literal lifetime.

Kurzbeschreibung
Recycling is one of the hottest new trends in embroidery, and this is the first book to cover it. 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. Covering both hand and machine embroidery, this book is packed with ideas for using many different types of salvaged material, such as fabric, paper, nature's materials including dried flowers and tree bark, plus plastic, wood and metal waste, and precious personal objects such as broken jewellery or special souvenirs. Illustrated in colour throughout with work from the world's leading contemporary embroiderers, the book covers : Introduction: Why recycle? * How to collect salvaged objects * Finding your own meaning * Fibre waste * Fabric waste * Recycling old embroidery * Paper and natural waste * Plastic waste * Wood, metal and mineral waste * Recycling packaging and books

Creative Recycling in Embroidery Val Holmes
2. November 2007
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I actually returned this book to Amazon - I think that's a first. Although I'm a huge fan of Holmes' and love most innovate needlework books - this one is stale material and there isn't anything new that you don't already have on your shelf, assuming you have purchased other books in the genre. Had I seen it in a book store and leafed through it, I would not have bought it. However, if you don't have any other books that are similar (the Maggie Grey books, or Janet Newton books) then you will probably find it worthwhile.
It isn't bad, it is just not new or original. The presentation and photos are wonderful, as I expect from British needlework books, and the techniques are described well. Ms Holmes has authored a number of embroidery books, and I believe I have them all - if you don't, and don't have other books on this subject, then I would recommend it.

CREATIVE RECYCLING IN EMBROIDERY
13. Juni 2007
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is an excellent book for those who want to create an artistic piece from salvaged fabrics, fibres, paper, plastic or anything that they think might come in useful at a later date. The book is full of ideas and useful hints for almost anything that a Textile Aartist could possibly ask for.

Nothing New
15. Juli 2008
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
I am a contemporary artist--painter and textile--and ordered the book on a whim.
Much of the work is tiresome, mediocre and lacking anything new that has not already been done. The book has photos of the work with some explanations of construction and found objects used. The use of embroidery is very loosely used in connection to the works. Most of the embroidery was machine and the very little hand work that was done was simplistic and minimal.
Another disappointment goes back to store.
