“Embroidery Made Easy – Awesome Animals” by Stephanie Carswell

Are you just starting to embroider and don’t want to venture into more advanced techniques yet? Stephanie Carswell is here to take your fear away: this small work, with simple and charming instructions and drawings, teaches you how to make your first stitches and follow easy outlines.

A great choice for beginners, not least because each of the 12 patterns is printed on iron-on paper: just use the iron and the design is transferred to the fabric to be embroidered.
