Description

Embroidering with a sewing machine is exciting, immediate and affordable; this practical book shows you how to do it. Packed with encouraging advice, it introduces the sewing machine before explaining how to design, plan and make your own embroideries and turn them into finished items to treasure. Topics covered include: learning how to set up the machine and carry out basic cleaning and maintenance; discovering which thread types, fabrics and mixed media elements are most suitable for machine embroideries; exploring how to use the pressure foot to turn functional utility stitches into exciting surface decoration; working freely with dropped feeder teeth and an embroidery foot, and learning how to alter the tension to create different effects and finally, using soluble film to enhance your pictures, and stitch realistic thread paintings of landscape, animal and bird embroideries. With over 900 colour photographs and illustrations, it is the perfect companion for both those new to machine embroidery and those looking for new ideas and inspiration. Read more

Thank You - Outstanding Resource
What a beautiful, technically thorough, and visually inspiring work on this topic. From what I have seen, this is incomparable in the marketplace. Valuable whether beginner or expert. If I picked this up in a bookstore, I would have readily spent 5X this price. It's a gift!

Not What I Expected
The 3-star review really has nothing to do with the book itself but how it was misinterpreted (by me). I was in the market for a machine embroidery book. This was given wonderful reviews and without looking too closely I bought it.. After having received it I realized that yes, it was machine embroidery, however, embroidery done on a standard sewing machine NOT an embroidery machine. This book was returned the next day. ... show more
