Patchwork Loves Embroidery: Hand Stitches, Pretty Projects Kindle Edition

Another excellent book by Australian designer Gail Pan!! This book has directions for 15 projects in it - and they all include sewing/piecing and hand embroidery. All of the beautiful finished projects are shown completed in soft, country colors. Gail's designs are fresh and her directions are clear and wonderful. I recommend this book. Please mark if you find my review helpful. Thank you so much!

I've used this so much and made some very sweet & easy projects for family & friends. The best small projects ever :) for an evening to make & to complete & they look like the photos, well written & the best ideas you get from just reading it. It gets the mind thinking on all the things you can easily make without a lot of time. It's a real value no matter what price you find. I paid $26.00 and well worth it.Amazon has used books & I get them all the time and they are like new and some of Amazons used book dealers give you the same great shipping deals too @ bargain prices, we love Amazons great deals & pricing and so fast shipping always.Beautiful illustrations and step by step directions and takes very minimal amounts in fabrics/scraps for the projects also in COLOR from cover to cover. Can you tell I do love this book. I don't have any projects to show because they have been sent to my family & friends. But can say see the cover I made that and it looked hard/no it wasn't. Looked identical to the cover photo you see on the book. You'll find yourself running around your sewing room looking for bits & pieces ribbon/rickrack/lace, fat quarter & buttons too for the projects.That woman can do project books very well.It has all the bells & whistles.

I belong to a group of people who stitch and quilt, and get together every week. Two other people went out and bought this book after leafing through it, everyone loves it, and we've made some nice projects out of it.

This book as some very cute little to medium projects combining quilting and embroidery. perfect for that little extra to make your project special. the instructions for the quilt are a little lacking for a beginner. The embroidery is mostly simple stitches and there is a sample in the beginning of the book. I might suggest if you are a beginner you might want to get one of Janice Vaines Embroidery books as she has excellent instructions on embroidery stitches.

I honestly LOVE every project in this book! There are 15 projects in all and all the projects include some embroidery...some are big like quilts and most are small, like bags and pincushions.All the patterns are full-sized so just trace and go. The author also recommends floss.If you are a fan of embroidery and sewing then this book is perfect for you! I am looking forward to starting many new projects from this book!

I have both of Gail Pan’s books (this one and Patchwork Loves Embroidery Christmas designs). I have made a few projects from these books and enjoy all of her designs.

I purchased a third copy of this book as a gift for a friend, because I love it so much! It is charming, with lots of lovely embroidery designs for various, fun projects. Great value for the money!

Lots of fun things to make. I've already made a couple of projects from this book as gifts.

This book is brilliant. I am returning to sewing after a lengthy break and wanted a book to brush up on my embroidery skills and put my relatively new sewing machine to good use, this book is perfect. I love the instructions, they are really clear and the projects are really nice too. So far I have made a small bag (something I thought I would never be able to do) and a pin cushion. Both turned out great and for once I am not embarrassed by my efforts! I would absolutely recommend this book for anyone who enjoys sewing generally and wants little projects to do.

Lovely book just received. Can't wait to get started on the projects in the book. Recommend it for all who like small patchwork items and embroidery.

Good book, lots of lovely projects. Well written and illustrated instructions are easy to follow. Suitable for beginners and experienced crafters.

This book is a delight to use, and the embroidery patches are really pretty, and not too difficult for someone like me ,who is not really an embroiderer. The projects are unusual and just that little bit out of the normal. The instructions are clear and easy to follow . I would definitely recommend this book.

I really like this book, I love browsing through it with a cup of tea in hand when I want to relax!. There are lots of projects in here that I would like to make; I can see lots of happy stitching hours ahead! If you enjoy embroidery and want to make some lovely small projects for gifts - or even for yourself - look no further!
