Hand-stitched Landscapes & Flowers - Katrina Witten

From Search Press, Hand-stitched Landscapes and Flowers by Katrina Witten is a paperback embroidery book that explores how hand-stitching can be used to depict the natural world. Using no more than six simple stitches for each embroidery, Witten combines delicate embellishments with an array of techniques and fabrics to create pastoral scenes of fields, flowers and creatures, finished with eye-catching three-dimensional effects.

Designed for makers looking for guided, project-led inspiration, the book includes ten detailed projects to try. Subjects include a hedgerow, a bluebell-emblazoned woodland, sunflowers, a poppy field and a summer scene featuring buddleia, butterflies and bees. Templates are included to help you follow along and recreate each design with confidence.
