Mornu (Quilt It with Wool) jumps on the hand embroidery bandwagon with this collection of embroidery ideas and ready-to-use motifs. The introductory chapter covers the basics--transferring designs, choosing fibers, standard stitches, and finishing techniques--followed by thematic collections of motifs. Each of the motif pages includes a small selection of traceable motifs, as well as a variety of ideas for use, including the usual (embellishing ready-made clothes, hoop art) and the less common (stitching on paper, embroidered buttons and jewelry). Mornu cleverly balances them between contemporary hipster and traditional style, and the suggested projects may help stitchers devise unique ideas for using embroidery as an embellishment. VERDICT Embroidery is on the upswing among crafters, and Mornu's nicely organized collection is full of helpful tutorials and clever ideas.
