Redoute's Finest Flowers in Embroidery by Trish Burr

Redoute's Finest Flowers in Embroidery by Trish Burr

Early 19th century botanical artist, Frenchman Pierre Joseph Redoute', left the world a legacy of hundreds of wonderful flower paintings. In turn these paintings have inspired this collection of delicate embroideries by Trish Burr.

Trish has reproduced 17 paintings in amazing detail, using only the simplest of stitches to create a remarkably complex effect. Step-by-step instructions are included for each embroidery - fabric, thread, stitches - which allow both the novice and the experienced embroiderer to create their own stunning botanical collection.
