PieceWork March/April 2016

Often, PieceWork includes articles and projects on everyday textiles. That is true for this March/April 2016 issue as well. In her article on a wool coverlet embroidered with wool thread, Kathy Augustine writes: "Embroidery, although not a survival skill, helped women carve a little bit of civilization out of a harsh environment."

In this issue, you’ll also discover the beautiful needlework that was produced by Gustave Stickley’s Craftsman Company, embroidered huck tea towels, and many authors of nineteenth-century needlework books, who provided readers with patterns and inspiration for making everyday textiles that were not only serviceable but also beautiful. Plus, there are 9 projects to knit, crochet, and embroider for your family and home. And there’s much more awaiting you in this issue!
