Product Description

A new generation is discovering embroidery, and Embroidery to Embellish Everything has the designs it is looking for - quick, easy, and perfect for personalizing anything from tops to socks. Envision a metallic red lion on the back of a jean jacket, or bright butterflies lighting on spa slippers. Every design is photographed on stylish clothing, accessories, home textiles, or a paper craft like a gift card. The designs feature wonderful new threads and some simple accents like beads and fabric paints. There are step-by-step instructions and full-sized patterns. A basics section teaches the stitches, which even a beginner can master in minutes, and gives tips about embroidering all kinds of fabrics and papers. The authors, a talented mother-daughter team, have created designs that they and their friends would love to wear, because they're as fresh and contemporary as today's clothes.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, but not great, April 7, 2008
There are 30 designs. There were a few that were fun, but most were uninteresting, unoriginal, and uninspired--Teacup on a saucer, a snake (that any kindergartner could draw for you), a treble clef, crown, balloon, sun, martini glass, etc. The better patterns (i.e. not as common) were a chinese "Love" symbol, big kahuna Hawaiian design, and cute "embellished" frames for scrapbookers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked it, but I'm a beginner..., July 18, 2009
I liked this book a lot, but I'm a beginner embroiderer and this was my first book. I found it at the discount store, meaning to buy Doodle Stitching at another store later, but never got around to it because this tells me most of what I need to know.

It is a beginner's book, but can be use further based on the different stitches explained in the book.

It tells you how to use different media in your embroidery, apart from just embroidery. There's how to use paint, applique, fusible web, beads, etc., then make it even better with embroidery.

The designs are not stuffy or old-fashioned. There's a tiki motif, a cool-looking sun, some Chinese character.

So, I have to give this 5 stars for content and ease understanding the instructions. It's great for a beginner like me, even if it doesn't have the highest number of projects.
