*Love Embroidery*
This book is the follow-on book to Willing Hands Volume 1 by Betsy
Morgan. Willing Hands 2 is a stunning book of etuis embroidered
using the counted thread technique. Each etui has beautiful
colour pictures to show the etui and the accessories that can be
made to complement the etui. There is also a good list of
requirements, fabric, supplies, needles, and threads. The
instructions are very clear regarding fabric, layout, stitching
order and hints to help you as you progress through the project.
There is also a lovely section covering all of the stitches that
you will need to complete the project with clear colour photos and
text to describe the stages to go through when completing the
stitch. All the examples also come in kit form. The final section
is that contraction of the etui and the templates required to
complete the etui and these are at full size so no messing around
copying to enlarge the template. The only thing I found is that the
charms and some of the buttons used for the projects are not
available by the main supplier of delivery to the UK or Europe but
there are alternatives out there if you are prepared to look for
them. Overall this is a lovely book, and I cannot wait to start my
next project.
