Embroidered Wild Flowers: Patterns Inspired by Field and Forest (Make Good: Japanese Craft Style)

I'm not an expert on embroidery, but have been getting into more and more. I didn't know what exactly to expect from this book, but I trusted the reviewers that said what a beautiful book it was and ordered it. They were correct, it is just lovely! I added some pictures to show a few pages, I hope that helps people see how nice this is. I'm ready to jump in today and try some of these stitches. I love how this is arranged, with the color pictures of the stitches completely, then in the second half of the book are the detailed stitches needed to make the flowers. Order this book, you won't be sorry! :)

Medium-format, slim, paperback captures the spirit of Japanese mystique in Nature in flora, e.g., found in "tree-bathing", walks in woods...my arrived package within a day, however, as postal worker, Chanel, saw, had a full-length, uneven, vertical bend in paperback cover, an inch from the binding, not related to opening the book...this is fyi. The book does not look used but both postal worker and I, (who saw it, the unsightly uneven vertical bend in cover, at same time as I lifted to package adhesive-held flap), frowned...just saying. Love the contents and artistic presentation of the sweet book...plan to also order the suggested book on "Embroidered Botanicals", again, Japanese style, soon. Wish this present wildflower embroidery book wasnt bent in cover, though.

I love her books. She makes very simple everyday things look beautiful. She has pictures to copy from of all her designs. She has instructions on which stitches she used as well as the colours. You can decide how much of her designs you want to use. Some days it’s nice to have everything written out for you so you can embroider will you binge watch your favorite programs on prime

Easy pattern and instructions

I love how the artist brings embroidered flowers to life. So many different flowers to choose from and it has inspired me to draw some patterns of my own. Beautiful illustrations and lots of inspiration!

A good, comprehensive guide to embroidering pretty things - if you've ever wondered what sort of stitches you should use to embroider different types of flowers, grasses, butterflies, birds, and other lovely natural things, than this book will be very helpful for you. This book makes me wish I had embroidery skills.

This is the sweetest embroidery book. Right down to the bee, the tiny snail and the dove. I’m going to really enjoy embroidering from this book! ♥️

While this is a small and compact book. It covers very nicely the does and don’ts of wild flower and plants for embroidery. Just what I was looking for at a good price.

Lindo, variedade de riscos, fáceis. Livro lindo e de qualidade.

Wunderschöne Bilder und Motive mit Anleitungen/Materialliste. Schon mein 2. Buch der Autorin! Super!!

Such a nice book and good inspriation. I will use it for many embroidery projects.

A lovely book bursting with creativity for the natural world. Highly recommend.

Just received this today so haven't made anything yet but look forward to sitting and looking through it.
