Janet Edmonds Knihy

Richly illustrated, with stunning colour photographs of finished pieces, diagrams and drawings, this book covers three-dimensional textiles in detail.

Set against the backdrop of Cape Cod's salt marshes and harbor, the narrative captures Janet Edmonds' life and writing. Her work vividly reflects the unique coastal environment, blending elements of nature with a deep sense of place and time, enriched by the essence of the sea.

Janet Edmonds creates textile pieces inspired by the work of artists including Van Gogh, Kandinsky and Matisse. Outlining each artist's work, she explores her inspiration through art projects in various media, then develops them in stitch, producing a stitch sampler in each case and a beautiful finished textile project.
