Bargello, which originated in 16th-century Italy, is an elegant style of needlework that became popular throughout Europe and America during the 17th and 18th centuries. An extremely simple style to master, it consists of an established pattern of straight stitches repeated in different color sequences across the piece of work. In this richly illustrated book, Joyce Petschek has combined the formal elegance of Bargello with her skill as a colorist to create a dazzling collection of designs, from cushions, chair seats, and lamp shades to hats and vests. The accompanying charts and text clearly explain how to create all 26 projects, which are worked on ordinary canvas and use a variety of threads, including silk and wool. This is a glorious guide the breathes new life into a centuries-old form of needlework. -- from dust jacket.

Bargello needlepoint, which originated in sixteenth-century Italy, employs a simple stitch that is repeated over and over again to form a distinctive geometric pattern in vibrant colors. Our mothers and grandmothers whiled away their time with it in the 1960s and 70s, and Bargello is now enjoying a revival among crafters. The technique lends itself to dramatic, wave-like designs in exciting, graduated colorways, and it's often used to create striking pillows, bags, belts, and purses. This new collection brings Bargello designs up to date with 40 stitch patterns, graded from beginner to advanced. Sisters Laura and Lynsey Angell offer a brief history of the technique as well as tips on tools and materials plus a tutorial of the stitches. A wealth of designs follow, enhanced with full-color photos and easy-to-read charts. In addition to guidance for creating textures and smart finishes at edges and borders, the authors provide suggestions for using fancy and alternative yarns and experimenting with freestyle patterns.
