Description

Embroidery renegade, Jenny Hart, gives her many fans what they've been clamoring for since the "Stitch-It Kit" was published: new stitches, new patterns, new projects, new techniques, and new transfers, all in her signature Sublime Stitching style, which has fetched so much praise from crafters. This book includes projects that go far beyond stitching on plain cloth, such as photo fabric transfers, paper embroidery, embellishing patterned fabric, using glow-in-the-dark or metallic thread, and much more, plus lots of inspirational photos, never before published stitches, and more than 30 reusable iron-on transfers.
