Features: Embroidery is one of China's outstanding national traditional crafts and stands out uniquely in the history of world culture. With the unprecedented prosperity of China's economy, culture, and arts, people are increasingly using embroidery to adorn their lives, no longer satisfied with its practical functions but rather pursuing artistic, natural, modern, and national styles. To meet market demands and people's aesthetic needs, we have invited Xu Lihui from Shandong University of Arts to compile the book "Practical Embroidery Patterns." This book briefly introduces the history of embroidery in China, focusing on the themes and patterns of embroidery, basic stitching techniques, classifications, the forms and characteristics of embroidery patterns, variation methods, and the principles of embroidery pattern composition. It also includes 12 types of embroidery patterns, such as flowers and animals. The book combines research on the history of embroidery, introductions to basic stitching techniques, and specific examples of embroidery. It is suitable for embroidery professional designers, art and craft college teachers and students for embroidery design purposes, as well as for housewives and embroidery enthusiasts for leisure handicrafts. It also holds high reference value for the design of artistic wall hangings and other handicrafts.
