I love goldwork but find it very challenging! I love the effect of the different gold threads and how the light plays on them. The tricky thing is getting them even all the time – or most of the time – but it is definitely worth the effort!

My experience in goldwork is limited as I have only taken a couple classes that use silk and metals but, the results are impressive.

Looks like a wonderful book.
My gold work experience was with Jenny Adin-Christie in Williamsburg.
Thank you.

I absolutely LOVE goldwork. I took a class in 2012 by Sophie Long, RSN and it began my reintroduction to stitching as I had put it aside for about 2 decades, as well as learning a new and different technique. Goldwork is gorgeous and I am so proud of my first piece. I also took an online class with Lucy Barter (former RSN, now has her own school in San Francisco). Among many other projects-to-do, I have 4 goldwork ones waiting in the wings. 2019 will bring me to complete at least 2 of them. So I could definitely use the expertise of the authors of this book. Thank you.

Embroidery makes the world a better place and Goldwork most especially. It combines the aesthetic with the techniques that create an artistic experience that can be enjoyed by all.
