Weave colored thread into 12 beautiful and simple designs--all featuring adorable bunny themes
"Thread painting" is the term for using colored thread embroidery to create artistic, dimensional images. Using Jenny McWhinney's wonderfully easy-to-follow directions, even novice embroiderers can recreate her 12 delightful rabbit-themed designs--including bunnies watering and potting plants, harvesting carrots, raking leaves, gathering sweet honey from the hive, and picking apples. Use them on garments, household objects, bags . . . anything you want Tracing patterns and stitch diagrams are included for every one, and 100 color photographs document the projects in various stages.

Industry Reviews

These charming and engaging bunnies will steal the heart of everyone who sees them. A cute book with 12 fabulous stitch projects suitable for every embroiderer from beginner upwards. There is surely a nod to Beatrix Potter here, but Jenny has injected her own style. She describes her thread painting as relaxed. The book is illustrated with her pencil and watercolour drawings as well as finished images of her work. Full sized line drawings are included for you to trace the patterns and detailed stitch instructions are included. There is also a stitch guide and a detailed, illustrated guide to thread painting. This book is a work of art whether you stitch anything or not. My guess is you will want to stitch all 12 delightful projects. For embroidery enthusiasts and lovers of bunnies. Recommended. This is a reprint of the 2003 book.
