The Embroidery Book Synopsis

The ultimate guide to embroidery, stitch by stitch.

Explore the craft and artistry of embroidery with this all-in-one guide to hand sewing skills. This essential book contains over 250 fully illustrated step-by-step stitch techniques, and showcases an extraordinary array of effects and designs you can create with needle and thread.

Get to grips with basic hand stitches, then try out a wide range of disciplines including modern embroidery, needlepoint, sashiko, goldwork, and even 3D effects. You'll discover how to bring old clothes to life with visible mending techniques, and how to achieve a flawless finish with your embroidery designs, even on the reverse of the fabric.

Once you've perfected your stitches, make the most of your skills with 15 embroidery projects, from classic floral designs to thread journaling - or explore a directory of over 100 motifs, each accompanied by a key of stitches used.
