"The Fine Art of Machine Embroidery" by Kristen Dibbs serves as an introductory guide to the creative possibilities of machine embroidery. Assuming no prior knowledge, this book shares tips, shortcuts and ideas that Dibbs has passed on to her students during workshops. With detailed instructions and diagrams, this book covers a broad range of projects – wearables, wall hangings, textile sculptures, and embellished fabrics, enabling readers to create unique items.
It explores techniques like free sewing, appliqué, lacemaking, couching and fabric collage, while also offering practical advice on fabrics, storage, machine care, and problem-solving. It inspires readers to develop their own artistic expression, experiment with methods, and combine them with other art forms. Aimed at sewing enthusiasts, it unlocks the potential of sewing machines as tools for art and self-expression.
