Botanical Embroidery

A Garden of Plant and Flower Designs to Stitch

Arounna Khounnoraj

Description

Arounna Khounnoraj teaches you to stitch detailed, realistic flowers and botanicals: her new book offers a wide range of embroidery skills and demonstrates how each can be used to create lovely, naturalist designs for home goods, garments and accessories

This detailed guide features illustrated instructions for 40 essential stitches (everything from the tiny seed stitch to 3D beauties like fishbone stitch and turkey work) and offers a nature-inspired approach that ensures each botanical motif is unique and realistic. Once you have mastered the foundation stitches, the book shows you how to create 20 flowers and botanicals and then combine them to make 15 pretty projects.

Change the size, colour or number of flowers and plants and the possibilities for variations are endless. Try your hand at creating a pillow, napkin or zip case, then move on to more advanced projects including wall art and an embellished sweater and shirt.
