Embroidery Garden: Artful Designs Inspired By Nature by Yanase Rei

Readers can capture the flowers, greenery, and animals found in their gardens, their neighborhoods, and their imaginations by stitching these embroidered botanical designs. Some bright, some dark, some richly complex like brocade, some simple and joyful—all the moods of the garden are offered here.

The rich, multilayered designs from well-known needlework artist Yanase Rei are at last available beyond her native Japan. Experienced embroiders and crafters new to embroidery will love these inspiring new designs.

    Twenty-nine embroidery patterns, including colorful, pastel, beige, or black flowers; flowers combined with beads; animals, birds, and fish; leaves and greenery.
    Six complete projects—bow ties, hatbands, bookmarks, brooches, hairbands, and clutch purses.
