Pattern Release!
turning summer abundance into embroidery art
Today I’m sharing with you the final two installments of my summer pattern series: a beet and rainbow carrot thread painting pattern. If you’ve never tried thread painting before, these two root veggies are the perfect place to start. They are the best way to learn how to make a gradient in color, and when you add texture to them with just a few lines, they come alive: the most gratifying kind of thread painting there is!
What’s Included?
I created these downloadable patterns with beginners and experienced stitchers in mind with varying degrees of project length and complexity. The simplest one (and best place to start if you’re a beginner) is the Beet. The next level up are the Rainbow Carrots. You can purchase these patterns individually or as a set. And! For the first time ever I’m selling a set of all (five!) of my summer patterns including the beet, rainbow carrots, blue flax, cosmos, and Icelandic poppy (this is by far the best deal/discount on my patterns!)
Each pattern includes a:

Preorder my book!
You can preorder my book, The Stitched Landscape. (coming October 7). This isn’t your typical embroidery book. While it has plenty of landscape embroidery patterns, it is so much more than a book of patterns. Instead I lead you into my world of art-making, sharing the most intimate details of how I came to where I am now as an artist (and a mother), how I find inspiration, how I came across my own style. I also share in depth how-tos on all of the unusual embroidery techniques that I’ve developed over the years along with the most basic embroidery techniques.
What about Europe?
When buying your book- cause I wanna get it for my sister when I eventually have the monies, is there a specific retailer or method of purchase that gets more money directly to you than the others?
