21st century style

Posted by Mumtopia on Jul 13th 2021

The word embroidery may conjure up a troop of listless young women waiting and hoping for their Mr Darcy to turn up, or your nana's posy-edged table-cloth, but Aneela Hoey brings embroidery right up to date in Little Stitches. Gone are the days when embroidery was all about alphabets and floral motifs. Your designs can be as modern as you like - from sewing machines and snow globes, to jugs of lemonade and treehouses, and Hoey's twelve whimsical, practical project tutorials show you how to put them to best use. In particular, embroidery is suited to making keepsakes and gifts, just as days gone by, but Hoey's pincushion features a taxi, and her needle case has the Empire State Building on the front. Included in this colourful and detailed guide to stitching, 21st Century-style, are more than 100 appealing illustrations printed on to transfer paper so that you can use and re-use them time and again. Embroidery, unlike some other crafts, can be taken along anywhere you go, and once you've mastered the basic stitches with Hoey's help, you'll want to embroider everything that doesn't move!

Cute, vintage-inspired approach

Posted by Library Journal on Jul 13th 2021

Hoey's name is familiar to many modern quilters - she's one of the founders of the popular Fat Quarterly e-zine, and her fabric lines for Moda blend fairy-tale whimsy with cheery color palettes. In her first book, she applies her charming aesthetic to a variety of small-scale embroidery projects. After an introduction to basic embroidery stitches and their uses, Hoey presents a variety of projects that combine small embroidered designs with simple sewing. The motifs are interchangeable, and all are included on reusable iron-on transfers. VERDICT Embroidery is gaining in popularity, especially among younger crafters. Hoey's cute, vintage-inspired approach will appeal to novice stitchers.

Slice of life artwork

Posted by Generation Q Magazine on Jul 13th 2021

This little bestseller from C&T Publishing is pricey, but for a good reason. Besides featuring Aneela's wonderful slices-of-life artwork, her style is a little different. There's a lot of fill-in stitching and texturizing that goes way beyond straight outlines. AND there's an iron-on transfer sheet pullout so you can immediately start recreating Aneela's stitched smiles. Don't worry. If the sheet gets used up, the original patterns are also printed in the book.

Just picked up the mail

Posted by Ursula F. on Jul 13th 2021

Just picked up the mail last night and looking through the book this morning. Beautiful! The iron-on patterns, more than I expected, will simplify the whole process, making it even better. Just what I need. Thanks. Ursula.

Posted by Kim on Jul 14th 2015

This book has the cutest designs to hand embroider and the best part is, the iron on patterns are included. There are several patterns, more than I thought there would be. Very clear instructions also.
