About the book

Smocking is a surface embroidery worked across pleated fabric. It is unique among embroidery forms in that it serves two purposes: first, it provides ornamentation; second, because of its elastic nature, smocking provides a means of controlling a garment's fullness, thereby creating more shape for the wearer. - Introduction.
