A guide to glorafilia needlepoint, which shows in practical detail, how to achieve the quality that has made this type of needlepoint famous. It describes the themes that have inspired the projects - classical motifs, Victorian florals, geometrics and oriental designs. These designs can then be used on cushions, pictures, stuffed animals, samplers and rugs. Projects can be approached at all levels of skill - simple for beginners but challenging enough to satisfy even an experienced needleworker.
