A-Z OF THREAD PAINTING

Hard back book ring bound, 128 pages, from the Inspirations magazine, published by Country Bumpkin Publications.

This book has a variety of thread painting projects ranging from beginners to advanced. Thread painting is also known as needle painting, soft shading, long and short stitch and silk shading.

Designs in the book include albatross, emu, eagle, meadow song, elephant blowing bubbles, sea shell and starfish, anemones, apples, lily, rose with rose hips, fuchsia, heartsease (pansies), briar rose, dahlia, rose with spider web, pear, lavender, tulip, wine merchants window.

The book also features my baby burrowing owl which is an beginners design, and my wolf, baby wren, spaniel and Siamese cat which are all advanced designs.

A chapter at the beginning of the book has the work in progress pictures of the long and short stitch and other stitches used on the thread painting designs. There is a chapter on working a thread painting project from beginning to end with work-in-progress photos of my baby burrowing owl.

Because of the complexity of the thread painting technique the book does not have work-in-progress photos of each of the projects featured in the book which could be a disadvantage if you are a beginner in the thread painting technique.

If you are a beginner I would suggest working my baby burrowing owl kit and have the A-Z of thread painting book for reference. The kit has detailed instructions with lots of diagrams to work the embroidery and the A-Z of Thread Painting book has step-by-step colour photos of the baby burrowing owl as a visual guide to keep you on right track.
