Margaret Lee is among the world leaders in the art of Chinese ‘Su’ embroidery, one of the world’s oldest and most admired embroidery styles. Her first book The Art of Chinese Embroidery – Foundation level is an immaculate ‘how to’ study and introduction into this unique embroidery style. Margaret goes to great lengths to ensure each stitch is clearly explained and illustrated to teach you both the technique and its application, allowing you to not only learn, but also understand the stitch. Meticulously designed and presented in a format tested through many years of teaching – it is like having Margaret in your living room. This fully illustrated ‘how-to’ book with clear diagrams throughout also includes perforated full size patterns with no resizing required. The seven projects are carefully selected to lead you on a journey to learn the skills as well as develop an understanding of the art form. The Art of Chinese Embroidery is much more than a learning experience – it is an artwork in its own right.
