Wool Embroidery Collection - Gail Rogers - Milner Craft Series

From Gail Rogers, the Wool Embroidery Collection is a paperback craft book that explores wool embroidery through a wide variety of decorative projects. Using exotic silks and beautifully coloured wools, many of the designs are further enhanced with metallic threads, the sheen of silk ribbon and the added dimension of beads, offering plenty of inspiration for stitchers looking to expand their techniques and finishes.

Across its 176 pages, the book presents an eclectic mix of designs, from woollen blankets featuring playful teddy bears to two standout blankets inspired by the colours and shapes of Australian wildflowers. Projects also include an embroidered woollen vest embellished with beads, an embroidered dressing gown depicting butterflies, buds and flowers, a footstool highlighted with metallic threads, a blanket with geese beneath a sparkling swag of ribbons, and an exotic crewel bellpull stitched with silk and wool threads. Each project is supported by suggestions for additional uses, encouraging you to adapt motifs for clothing, table linen, wall hangings and bags.
