This book, like Christen's first book (Ribbonwork Gardens) has photographed step-by-step instructions that are invaluable to the student who needs to see the process worked out, with easy to follow text. The book includes a section on the materials and supplies that you will be using, including information on beads, ribbons, threads, and other embellishments, with clear photographs of these items. The chapters include four different types of embroidery, which is different from other books that may concentrate on just one type of embroidery. This is a must have for anyone who enjoys working with needle and thread!

I have taken a couple of classes from Christen Brown on line and though her classes are very thorough, I always wanted more - and here it is - beautifully detailed photos of stitches, patterns and instructions for some fun and DOABLE projects and beautifully photographed samples of some finished projects. Often I find books to be either too basic or advanced but without clear enough instructions to replicate them. This book offers instruction for making your projects as simple or as complex as your little heart desires including the addition of beads, sequins and ribbons to your embroidery. This book is awesome! Thanks Christen for writing the book I always wanted.
