{"product_id":"zakka-embroidery","title":"Zakka Embroidery","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith a kaleidoscope of thread colors available, the task of picking just the right palette for an embroidery project can be overwhelming to beginners and experienced stitchers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut when you take away that challenge, a whole world of texture and style becomes available. In this book, Japanese designer Yumiko Higuchi presents embroidery motifs to be stitched in just \u003cstrong\u003eone or two colors\u003c\/strong\u003e--creating patterns and designs that are more evocotive for their form than for a play of colors. Moving away from traditional embroidery motifs, the designs here are an elegant hybrid of Japanese and Scandinavian style: the motifs and patterns are spare and graphic, yet softened with organic shapes and imagery drawn from nature. The result is embroidery that evokes a personal feel and conjures a sense of nostalgia and longing. What is further appealing is the seeming simplicity in recreating these designs: by creating designs that use either one color or two colors the work here feels very approachable and appropriate for beginner stitchers. Each embroidery design is paired with a simple project, such as ribbons, pillows, and pouches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e192 pages\u003cbr\u003e21.2 x 1.2 x 15 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50697350545478,"sku":"9781611805","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/8992\/6982\/files\/801001d2-3537-4d69-97b5-ec557994a17f.png?v=1792758795","url":"https:\/\/woodlandmod.com\/products\/zakka-embroidery","provider":"Woodland Mod","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
