Express yourself with embroidery!

Nothing is funnier than the unexpected combination of a lovingly handmade embroidery piece with an irreverent (though not necessarily less heartfelt) statement. This book shows how to use a traditional craft to add a very modern message to coasters, bags, patches, pillows, tea towels, eyeglass cases and more.

Innovative designer and author Debra Valencia presents 25 fun embroidery lettering projects that let you say what you really mean-in stitches. Bold, snarky, amusing, or clever-these needlework ideas are anything but old-fashioned samplers. Embroidered Lettering also includes an alphabet for you to use in stitching your own phrases, along with basic instructions for stitches and advice on materials and tools.
