Creative Stitching Second Edition Sue Spargo is another designer who works with wool. We are looking forward this year to buying some brighter wool. We are loving the earthy tones of the hand dyed wool we already sell but we will be looking at the brighter side of the colour wheel. Those of you familiar with Sue Spargo’s work will know that she layers her work with much embroidery and bead work and in this updated version of her previous book you will find hundreds of her stitches over many chapters and headings. It has a convenient spiral lie flat binding which makes it easy to follow her step by step diagrams. 214 Pages. $58.00 Stitches from the Harvest Fifteen all-new embroideries await you in Kathy Schmitz’ new book. Kathy is Bonnie Sullivan’s sister and their other sister makes beautiful jewellery. What a talented family. There are some beautiful embroidery projects in this new book. There is a little bit of wool but I am particularly interested in a beautiful embroidered pillow! There are lots of small projects which are do-able and not too overwhelming. 80 Pages. $42.20 Quilts & Projects from my Favorite Fabrics Yoko Saito is becoming so famous and no wonder. Her work is exquisite and she has lots of embroidery and tiny appliqué embellished with embroidery. She has so much detail in her projects, it is a joy to look through her books. She uses lots of taupes as a lot of Japanese women do and in this book there are small projects right up to quilts that look like life time projects. ?? Pages $60.10 120 Original Embroidery Designs You can begin with easy pieces, in this book by Yoko Saito. It’s a thick book with 223 pages. By the end of the book you will be surprising yourself with the appliqué and embroidery projects you will be tackling. This is a book written by an immensely talented artist. ?? Pages $78.60 Yoko Saito's Japanese Taupe Color Theory Another Yoko Saito book. This one has page after page of colour pictures and examples of how Yoko puts her taupe quilts together. You will learn a lot from putting together these taupes to browns getting some pretty amazing results. I think her books have just been translated into English which is probably why we have so many of them. I just love looking through them. She does incredible work! 145 Pages. $67.80 Important Book Ordering Information We carry only a shop copy of most titles. They are available in store for your inspection.
