Measuring just 4in (10cm) square, each is worked on an assortment of silk Japanese kimono fabrics, and is accompanied by detailed instructions, a stitch diagram, and the outline for the design. At the start of the book there is a fascinating history of Japanese family crests, followed by a stitch directory and a comprehensive techniques section covering the essential methods of working Stumpwork and Goldwork.
