Synopsis

This book presents 10 projects designed to be approachable while still feeling refined, celebrating Beatrix Potter through stitch. Alongside 10 appliqué and six embroidery designs, it introduces working with hexagons and offers clear routes into making pieces such as an embroidered quilt, a cushion inspired by The Tailor of Gloucester, a wool storage box, and a wedding quilt based on one from Beatrix Potter’s home.

Projects are intended to be adaptable, with scope to rework the designs into items such as bags, appliquéd pinafores, or embroidered gifts. Historical vignettes are included to explore Beatrix Potter’s life and work, and the book covers stitching by hand and by machine.
