First of all I would just like to thank all of the crafters out there in the world for dedicating their lives to be surrounded by precious handmade things. Second of all I have made it my life’s mission to join their ranks. The next time you walk through the doors of Lemuria be sure to check out the most awesome craft section at the far end of the front desk.
Within the past month and a half I have become obsessed with embroidery. Not just any embroidery though, this is Jenny Hart embroidery. Jenny Hart is the queen of the crafters. She has her own company online called Sublime Stitching where you can buy all kinds of hip patterns. Or better yet, you can buy her books! We have two of her books in the store and they are great!
She can teach the most beginner of beginner embroiderers how to stitch. She includes easy to understand how-to illustrations of a number of popular stitches, along with super cute projects. Her first book is called Sublime Stitching, which is great and has a TON of reusable embroidery transfers. However, her newest book Embroidered Effects is my favorite!
Seriously, the cuteness is unending. There is such a variety of patterns that you will want to make something for everyone you know. Inexpensive Christmas gifts perhaps? Well that is what everyone is getting from me! And might I add I will be creating all these awesome handmade goodies in the crafting room I have set up in my house. I know, I know.
But honestly Jenny Hart is not the only crafter with some great books out there. Our craft shelves have some of the best. -Ellen
