This lockdown made me try a few things. I learnt embroidery ages ago. This book totally intrigued me to request it on NetGalley. Thank you, NetGalley for the review copy in return for my honest review.
This book focuses on many cute and easy embroidery designs. I can totally see myself doing a few of these.

What beautiful embroidery motifs!

The book is divided into several different categories of motifs, such as flowers, butterflies, feathers, cats, among others.

Each chapter presents images of the embroidery itself as well as photographies of the final project: the purse.

At the end of the book you can find a brief and clear explanation of the stitches you need for each motif, the patterns with the stitches used in every part of the motif, and the patterns themselves.

I think I'll update this review once I make, at least, one of the motifs.

Thanks to Zakka Workshop and NetGalley for providing me with an e-arc in exchange for my honest review.

I have been doing hand embroidery for years and am always excited to see a new book released that incorporates techniques that are new to me. This book has some lovely ideas and very clear instructions that will appeal to those new to the craft and veterans alike. It's a lovely book and excellent value, will absolutely use it next time I'm teaching someone needlework,

One star off due to the ebook format not quite working like it could, but if that issue were fixed this book would be even more stellar.

This seems like a nice book; however I don’t think it works in Kindle form. I think I would have been more impressed had it been in colour and either a PDF version or an actual book.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

While I don't love the e-book layout and would definitely recommend readers to purchase the physical copy, I really, really enjoyed this book. The creations and embroidery are beautiful and creative, and I think there's a lot of inspiration to be found with this book. I pulled out my embroidery hoop while going through this book and got some really cute ideas! I loved the step-by-step processes, and the instructions are super clear. Definitely would recommend this one!
