Ancient European tradition lives on in goldwork, an art form encompassing embroidery with all types of metal threads, not only gold. Once reserved for royalty and other aristocrats, goldwork is now available to all through this fully illustrated guide. Part historical reference, part project plan book, and fully stuffed with pattern templates, it is an authoritative sourcebook on the history, materials, and techniques of goldwork embroidery. There are 15 projects for readers to complete, such as the Ornamental Fan, Portrait of a Woman, a lush Cornucopia, and an arresting Byzantine Angel. Color photographs show examples of medieval designs, and provide visual guideposts through each new project, while a section on metal thread manufacturing delivers a rich historical perspective.

Mary Brown is a practicing artist and was a Visual Arts teacher in Catholic Senior Colleges, Sydney, Australia for many years specializing in painting, printing and wearable art. In 2000-01, she did the Certificated Course at the Royal School of Needlework, England. On her return to Australia, she decided to embark on her new embroidery career. From 2007 - 2017 Mary was a sessional lecturer in the Fashion and Textile Department at the University of Technology Sydney. Mary now specializes in Goldwork embroidery, running workshops in embroidery shops and for the Embroiderers' Guild. She has also published projects for many embroidery magazines.
