Carina Envoldsen-Harris of Carina’s Craftblog has published a stitchery e-book! And she’s celebrating by sharing an autumn pattern freebie.
Small Stitches is available from Polka & Bloom, which says,
Small Stitches has 22 pages aimed at getting you started with embroidery in a fun way. It has a short introduction to the basic tools and materials you need. The beauty of embroidery is that you dont need a lot of kit, so it is a fairly economic craft to throw yourself at.
Small Stitches covers the following stitches: Straight stitch • Running stitch • Back stitch •French knot • Daisy stitch • Chain stitch • Cross stitch • Star stitch • Satin stitch • Blanket stitch • Buttonhole wheel
There are 9 patterns in the book. Most of them use just 2 or 3 stitches, progressing with the stitch directions…
The patterns range from very simple designs like a leaf or a paisley pattern to more intricate ones that use several colours and stitches.
The book costs just US $10.00, and it will be sent to you by e-mail in PDF format within 24 hours after payment. See more and get the links from Carina’s post.
And remember to download the free autumn-leaf pattern.
