"Flowers and Embroidery," blooming at your fingertips. This introductory embroidery guide captures the familiar flowers seen in childhood yards with a sophisticated sensibility.

With helpful photographs, it teaches everything from drawing patterns to tying knots, enabling even beginners to learn the basics easily and quickly. Additionally, the book features pictorials showing how embroidered items are utilized in everyday life, such as dandelion seeds embroidered on the hem of a skirt or a linen hat embroidered with muscari.
