A Week of Hand Embroidery Stitches
Posted by Christen Brown on Oct 19th 2021
Recently I asked several friends to be involved in a week of Stitch Along posts to promote my new book, the Hand Embroidery Dictionary. I selected 10 stitches and broke them into 5 groups. Each participant chose one group to work with, stitching a sampler or block in any colors or fibers that they wanted to work with. I was totally amazed and impressed with each of the unique pieces that arrived in my email box. Everyone created a unique piece, that reflects their own style.
