Creative Hardanger

I love the color added to the hardanger. I'm new at hardanger and am going to try some of these designs. They have clear directions and the designs can be modified to framed pieces as well.

Excellent Introduction to Hardanger

I taught myself hardanger using this book alone. My first project is nearly completed and looks very nice. The first part of the book teaches each of the different stitches required to complete the projects in the book. There are many illustrations that clearly show each step of a new stitch and make it easy to learn. Once all of the stitches are taught, she moves into the projects. They are arranged in increasing order of difficulty and start with a small sampler and end with a christening gown. I highly reccomend this book for anyone who is interested in exporing hardanger embroidery.
