Kurzbeschreibung

Brenda Keyes inspires stitchers to create their own heirlooms of the future based on beautiful antique sampler designs. Here she celebrates the art of sampler making throughout the ages, gathering together ideas and inspiration from the past to create a comprehensive collection of traditional designs. The twenty samplers featured cover a range of subjects reflecting five main themes: authentic reproduction samplers; the naive charm of schoolroom samplers; designs marking important life milestones; celebrations of childhood; and flora and fauna samplers. Brenda also shows how easy it is to extract details from the samplers to create quick-to-work gifts for family and friends. Most of the projects are worked in cross stitch, but a whole range of classic 'sampler' stitches are also included, with clear explanatory diagrams.

This is Brenda Keyes 5th book and as motivating as the other 2 I have. Twenty samplers are featured, with many smaller samplers, inspired by a wide range of antique motifs. There is a sharp color photo of each sampler, many in room settings. They are stitched beautifully on linen and Aida, in bright complementary colors, suited for beginning to advanced stitchers. Samplers are well displayed, framed and matted using inspirational methods and materials. Charts are in color, and black and white, and are very easy to follow. There is an added assortment of 10 alphabets for personalizing samplers with initials and dates. Framing methods are suggested, cleaning stretching, use of acid-free materials and charting your own designs are explained. I look forward to stitching my own samplers from this collection inspired by antiques that our ancestors put great effort in creating.

Good but not great 8. Mai 2009
Von Wendy - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
Although I liked the book and the fact that it contains patterns for the samplers, the first 2 samplers I worked on had some glaring mistakes in the pattern that should have been fixed by either the author or her copy editor.

The first sampler I did was the Engagement Sampler (pgs 66-69). The sampler called for DMC 3021 thread which was identified in the pattern in the book as mid-green and was mid-green in the picture of the finished product. However DMC 3021 is not mid-green in fact it is a dark brown color. I ended up using DMC 3051 for the color which was a green color.

The second sampler I worked on was the Edwardian Style Birth Sampler (pgs 118-121). The first typo was in the Alphabet border (they list A-Z twice around the border) the letter "G" on the left side is different from the letter "G" at the top. They should both be the same and the left "G" should be like the top "G". The other typo is the omission of a warm brown border (DMC 434) around the basket of the hot-air balloon. The warm brown border appears in the picture of the finished product but is not in the pattern.

As I really liked having the patterns in the book, I would have loved to give this book a 5-star review but with mistakes like these in the 2 samplers I completed I felt as though the author or copy editor didn't really pay enough attention to the details. I haven't worked on any of the other samplers so I don't know if there are any other pattern typos.

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
When you are - as I am - passioned about (traditional) samplers, stitching and embroidery, you need to buy books from Brenda Keyes.
This books gives you nice and clearly traditional patterns. You are also shown how to use them in modern arrangements. Very good technical support.
I don't need to tell you how nice it is to have this book in your little sampler librabry. You can look at it as much as you like.
Nice book in very good condition. Excellent seller : good packed and quickly send.
Negative : expensive international postal costage.
