Freehand Machine-Embroidered Pictures

«

This is such a beautiful book!

There is a very personal tone from Abigail as she explains her love of applique and the use of freehand machine  embroidery.

To me, there is a whimsical charm about the projects that Abigail has included, from afternoon tea, cottage gardens and seaside images.

The instructions are clear, with a great deal of advice relating to fabric selection and how to construct the applique images.  There are templates for five projects.  My only criticism is that I would like templates to make all of the pictures featured, as they are so beautiful! 

Everything about this book is lovely and I can't wait to try one of the  projects.
