Artful Botanical Embroidery: A Collection of 32 Patterns & Projects for All Seasons - Alice Makabe

\n \nFollowing the success of Beautiful Botanical Embroidery, Japanese \nembroidery artist Alice Makabe explores and celebrates her love of \npattern through floral embroidery. \n \n \n \nOrganized by season, \nyou'll find soft, muted motifs to embroider in springtime, refreshing \npatterns for summer, warm, rich color combinations for autumn and bold, \nvivid hues to brighten up the winter. A single motif can be used to \ncreate a nearly endless number of patterns, just by changing the color \nscheme or orientation. \n \n \n \nIn addition to over 20 floral \nmotifs, the book also includes instructions for ten embroidered \nprojects, such as purses, brooches, drawstring pouches, sachets, and \nbookmarks. These beautiful hand embroidered items brighten up everyday \nlife and make thoughtful gifts. \n \n \n \nExperiment with pattern and color as you join Alice Makabe on a stitching journey inspired by the art of botanical embroidery.\n
