Book Description

A beginner-friendly to advanced embroidery primer, DIY Embroidered Shoes includes an extensive stitch dictionary, instructions for successfully embroidering on footwear, and vibrant ideas for turning ordinary canvas shoes or espadrilles into personalized, eye-catching embroidered shoes.

Melissa Galbraith, who also authored How to Embroider Texture and Pattern, first provides introductory information on what you will need, including shoes, tools, and thread. Then, you'll find clear instructions for how to prepare the shoes you want to embroider, transfer the design, and stitch — or design and make your own custom espadrilles with the multi-sized pattern!

The designs range from densely stitched mountain ranges to wispy florals and everything in between. Need a little more explanation? You can scan handy QR codes that lead you to further video instructions.
