Embroider exquisite soft furnishings for the living, dining, or bedroom, and for unforgettably elegant gifts. These classic projects provide the ideal display for your stitching talents.

Or make table runners and cloths; a breathtaking firescreen; lavender sachet; dressing table set; pillowcase; duvet cover, and more. All the stitches and techniques (including the "kloster blocks"--groups of satin stitches--that form the pattern's geometric motifs) appear in close-up photographs with simple instructions for the hardanger beginner.
