Embroidered Garden Flowers

by Diana Lampe, Jane Fisk

This is a collection of embroidered flower projects. It features a traditional small flower garden, a spring garden, a spring garland and embroidered initials, as well as many gift ideas. All the colours have been carefully matched so that they reflect the colours of the flowers being worked, and the stitches used have been chosen to recreate the true form of each of the flowers. The authors describe the techniques used in a simple style that shows how easy it is to embroider your own garden so that it "blooms" into life. Embroidered samplers feature every flower, and a section on how to frame your own embroideries describes how to achieve professional results.
