In this beautiful book, Tatiana Popova shows you how to create exquisite crewelwork embroideries inspired by her favourite fairy tales, including The Wizard of Oz, Karolcia, The Wild Swans and Cinderella. This magical collection takes as its central theme a magnificent embroidery entitled The Tree of Happiness - a stunning piece composed of several parts, each of which is a gorgeous embroidery in its own right. More experienced needleworkers will be inspired to create the entire piece, but those new to embroidery may prefer to start with the smaller projects. Each one is explored in detail with guidance on stitches, threads and colours, and Tatiana provides alternative ways of working each design. All the embroideries are worked using stranded cotton and cotton pearl thread to give them a light, fresh, modern appeal, and the comprehensive stitch index containing over 90 stitches makes this beautiful book one you will turn to again and again for inspiration and guidance.
