Embroidered Lettering

Techniques and Alphabets for Creating 25 Expressive Projects

Debra Valencia

Description

Express yourself with embroidery! Nothing is funnier than the unexpected combination of a lovingly handmade embroidery piece with an irreverent (though not necessarily less heartfelt) statement.

This book shows how to use a traditional craft to add a very modern message to coasters, bags, patches, pillows, tea towels, eyeglass cases and more. Debra Valencia presents 25 fun embroidery lettering projects that let you say what you really mean – in stitches. Bold, snarky, amusing or clever – these needlework ideas are anything but old-fashioned samplers. The author also includes an alphabet for you to use in stitching your own phrases, along with basic instructions for stitches and advice on materials and tools.
