Fanciful felties from mummysam: Sew People to Meet, Places to Go & Things to Do (Stash Books)- Samantha Cotterill

Review

Recently I received some wonderful books for review from Stash Books, a division of C & T Publishing. I've been impressed with the books coming from them recently, including Scandinavian Stitches by Kajsa Wikman, City Quilts by Cherri House and Little Birds, which is a compilation of adorable bird projects from some of your favorite crafters. But the book that really caught my eye was Fanciful Felties from Mummysam by Samantha Cotterill. I've long been a fan of Samantha's work, combining free motion embroidery and hand-sewn elements to make whimsical creations.

Embroidery Companion: Classic Designs for Modern Living - Alicia Paulson
