JOURNAL WITH THREAD
By: Jessie Chorley
Publisher: David & Charles
ISBN: 978-1446313060
RRP: £19.99
Learn to create a unique fabric journal using slow stitch fabric techniques with textile artist Jessie Chorley. Combine fabric, threads, and notions to make a handstitched book measuring 20 x 20cm and then follow the step-by-step instructions to make a seasonal journal representing Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Use iron-on transfer paper with hand-drawn motifs for the designs. Embellish the designs with different stitches, threads, and applique techniques, as Jessie shares her favourite filling stitches. In addition to the full-page templates, there is a large selection of smaller motifs for readers to use throughout their books. These include Jessie’s signature alphabet and number motifs which can be used to mark people, places and dates.
