As an embroider myself, I loved the book。 I was thinking of doing a hoop embroidery for a long time, but was unsure about the techniques。 The book serves as a complete guide for advanced embroiders。 The author has illustrated every design with stitches used and thread colors with their numbers。 Although, the patterns are focused on bird patterns, but still the book is wonderful。 I, would love to give the book 5 stars。Read more on https://www。instagram。com/p/CdBe2uFvXup/ As an embroider myself, I loved the book。 I was thinking of doing a hoop embroidery for a long time, but was unsure about the techniques。 The book serves as a complete guide for advanced embroiders。 The author has illustrated every design with stitches used and thread colors with their numbers。 Although, the patterns are focused on bird patterns, but still the book is wonderful。 I, would love to give the book 5 stars。Read more on https://www。instagram。com/p/CdBe2uFvXup/ 。。。more

Thanks to Edelweiss, the publisher, and the author, for the advance reader copy。When the author called this book Embroidery Made Easy, they weren't kidding! I've never embroidered anything before (though I did recently start cross stitching), so I was surprised by how easy this book really makes it。 I have been working on the first project in the book- a hummingbird- and I'm genuinely delighted by how great it looks。 The best part of this book are how in-depth the descriptions and illustrations Thanks to Edelweiss, the publisher, and the author, for the advance reader copy。When the author called this book Embroidery Made Easy, they weren't kidding!

This book is absolutely stunning。 If you love to embroider and love birds, this book should be on the top of your list。 It is very well done。 The colors are there for you and the drawings show the direction of the stitching。 There are twelve different birds for the reader to choose from。 I love embroidery and birds so this beautiful book is a win win。 Well done。
