Embroidery used to be done solely by hand; now the advent of machine embroidery teaches how to feature machine-embroidered designs in home decor whether purchased or made by scratch. It's a snap to make home accents using this guide: the author's an expert in both sewing and home decor and here provides tips on measuring, cutting and enhancing everything from tablecloths and napkins to comforters.

This book was not exactly what I expected when I ordered it, but I have found it useful and love Donna Dewberry's machine embroidery design CD that is included with the book. Although different than what I thought, it has good and useful ideas for the many rooms in your home.
