Decorate your world

MYSTICAL STITCHES by Christi Johnson As the title implies, it is all about sewing stitches for decoration on clothing or accessories. I chose this book for the designs offered, I value them for their artistic properties. There is a good spread of designs, none too satanic or witchcraft looking. I had reservations since it's titled Mystical. The author has models wearing clothing articles that have been embroidered using the designs offered in the book, so you will have an idea of how they look on the finished product. Highly recommend. Perfect for needle artists and even journalers like myself. Many thanks for the complimentary copy of #mysticalstitches from #netgalley I was under no obligation to post a review.
