Synopsis

Stumpwork—or raised embroidery—has a rich texture that really makes a design stand out. Create hangings, embroidered brooches, and images of flowers, animals, and wildlife with these 19 projects. Stitch dandelions, buttercups, and butterflies; a deer next to a pear tree; a pinwheel decorated with foxgloves on one side and a dragonfly with metallic wings on the other. Includes instructions for every stitch you need.
