Description

​​From beautiful botanical latticework to chickens laying eggs, here are 42 inspired patterns and creative projects embracing the endless possibilities of designs that connect and repeat.​

With twenty-one new guided embroidery patterns and corresponding projects, crafters old and new will find in this book a fresh set of decorative stitchwork by cherished designer Yumiko Higuchi to follow or be inspired by. Stitch flowering apple trees, colorful intertwining ribbons, carousel horses, budding plants, European-style houses all lined up in a row, and more--all in the spirit of weaving together seamlessly repeating patterns suitable for projects small and large.

The guided projects for each pattern play on the fun, whimsical nature of the repetitive motifs. Fabric book covers with fences and fall-colored trees, a decorative vine crown, roses trailing down the sides of a tote bag, intricate floral bracelets--these projects and more will give any crafter plenty of creative space to bring these beautiful designs into their home. Each pattern and project comes with step-by-step instructions displayed in beautiful full-color photography, including stitch types, thread colors, stitch order, and various material suggestions.

Whether coming to embroidery for the first time or approaching it as a longtime friend, all crafters will find joy in these charming, connecting designs.
