H M Stevens World of Embroidery by Helen M Stevens

In the fifth collection of her extraordinary embroideries, Helen M. Stevens has gathered her inspiration from around the globe. The natural world, diverse cultures, literary heritage and realms of fantasy, like the four corners of the compass, point her needle toward new horizons, strange lands and fresh ideas. The superb colour plates and Helen's explanations of the techniques and stitches she employs provide invaluable interpretation.
Helen M. Stevens is the author of eight books for David & Charles, her most recent being Helen M. Stevens' Embroiderer's Year, published in 2004, and Embroidered Birds, part of the Masterclass series published in 2003. She has just celebrated her 21st anniversary as a textile artist and regularly lectures on her work both in the UK and in North America. Helen lives near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
