Reviews

This is an exciting, how-to book to get kids interested in embroidery, from embellishing clothing to making pictures and getting creative. Kristin shows how to transform boring stuff into awesome stuff with just a needle and thread. The great thing about embroidery, she says, is that you can work on it almost anywhere, so its perfect for road trips and rainy days. There are clear instructions so kids can produce a variety of simple stitches and customer each project making them look exactly they want them too.
