Inhaltsangabe:

Internationally-renowned textile artist Jill Gordon presents a stunning collection of twelve beautifully scenic landscapes from around the world. As a painter and textile artist, Jill Gordon is best known for her vivid portrayals of nature. In this wonderful new collection of her work, she has broadened her inspiration to capture the unique beauty of twelve landscape views. Whether she is depicting a simple woodcutter's cottage or a dramatic castle, Jill captures the unique atmosphere of the original scene, bringing it to life in stitches. While many of the designs are finished as simple framed pictures, Jill shows how easily the stitching can be transformed into eye-catching items such as a wall hanginging, firescreen, footstool, cushion and tray inlay.
