Embroidery Pour Le Bebe: 100 French Designs for Babies and the Nursery

2013 | Sport & Leisure

This delightful little craft book from French artist Sylvie Blondeau presents more than 100 adorable projects to decorate everyday objects for babies. With decorating ideas for things they use all the time, such as diaper bags, blankies, bibs, bottle holders, and toys, this embroidery book teaches easy-to-follow personalization ideas for both first-time and experienced sewers. Using step-by-step illustrations and text, readers will learn twenty-one embroidery methods-les secrets de la broderie-so they can easily embroider every project in the book and add sweetness and charm to all things that babies love and require. In no time readers will be adding bunnies to pillows, baby carrots to bibs, teddy bears to blankies, flowers and baby faces to onesies. At a very affordable GBP8.99 this is the perfect purchase for an expecting mother, proud grandmother, and anyone looking to personalize a gift for a newborn. It is part of a new Harper Design embroidery series and is dolled up in a petit and colorful package, with each project inside looking as if it has been hand-stitched directly into the book.

For the ever-growing world of crafters-the mothers, grandmothers, and new generation of crafters on Etsy and Pinterest, the women personalizing things for themselves and gifts for their loved ones-the books they flock to are the most charming ones, and no other embroidery book is as adorablely charming, as inspire et enchante, and as easy-to-follow as this one.
