Needlepoint Designers | Candace Bahouth

Candace Bahouth portrait

Candace Bahouth's book Medieval Needlepoint, published in 1993, established her reputation as an outstanding needlework designer.  It also showed that she had an instinctive affinity with this period. She captures the rich, dense colors of Flemish and Burgundian woven tapestries, combining the imagery of these hangings with her own uniquely rich borders.

An American needelpoint designer and tapestry weaver, Candace was the first to pioneer mixing gold thread with wool, which gives her needlepoint kits their trademark sparkle.

Klimt Needlepoint by Candace Bahouth

The backgrounds we see in Gustav Klimt's paintings have fascinated decorative artists for over a hundred years. They seem as intoxicating now as they must have seemed to Fin-de-Siecle Vienna in the 1890's.  These designs appeal directly to the senses and Candace's use of gold thread is exactly what Klimt would have liked.
