Coloring with Thread

Embroidery meets colour-by-number! This book translates the phenomena of coloring books and Tula Pink's distinct style into the trending craft of hand embroidery.

Let your inner creativity come through and learn a new way of coloring in--with thread! Fabric designer and quilt world personality Tula Pink's fanciful artwork is poised for embroidery stitch work aimed at the new generation of crafters who love to create a one-of-a-kind project, as seen with the current coloring book phenomenon.

Included in this book are more than 20 original designs by Tula herself to be stitched and used in a variety of ways. Each motif has been masterfully stitched and is shown alongside a comprehensive embroidery stitch guide. But that's just one way the piece could be stitched! With a complete stitch guide, you can fill in your designs however you choose!

About the Author

Author of Quilts from the House of Tula Pink, Tula Pink has become an icon of the fabric and quilt world. She designed her first fabric collection in her living room in L.A., after work and on weekends. The day she left her job in L.A., she sent it into Moda Fabrics and by the time she got to Albuquerque, it was in production.

Tula was a Senior Designer with Moda, as well as having her own design label with them. She produced eight collections under that label, including the incredibly popular Neptune and Plume collections. As of August 2010, she works with Free Spirit (home to the likes of Joel Dewberry, Anna Maria Horner, Heather Bailey, Jenean Morrison and Valori Wells). Her fabrics are designed not just for quilting, but for a whole lifestyle of DIY-ers with a passion for saying things like "Hey, look what I made" or "Don't sit on that, it's still wet."
