I am posting on behalf of a neice. She's interested in Moroccan Embroidery, particularly in the following question: Does traditional Moroccan embroidery start with threads of different colors, or are the colors dyed in after fabric is embroidered with thread of a single color? I'd imagine it has to be the former, but she wants to know for sure.
Are there websites with information on Moroccan Embroidery techniques -- *how* it's done, not just pictures of textiles? The book "Moroccan Textile Embroidery" by Isabelle Denamur looks as though it might have the information we seek, but it's not in any of our local libraries and no book seller (online or physical) seems able to get it at short notice.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
