This book is ideal for both beginners, with clear instructions and for advance punch needlers with both iron on transfers and patterns to enlarge. There is a lovely range of animal gifts to create.
This book has got me hooked :) All the projects in this book require you to work on a twelve inch sized hoop and after some practice at needle punching anything to make it non-slip will be worth it.
There are iron on transfers in the back of this book which you could also trace against a light board if needed. The projects in this start with basic techniques and as you go through the book there are new techniques to learn. The designs would be lovely for a kids nursery! But also the techniques you build up will put you in good stead to create your own!
A lovely book that I have enjoyed loads so far. Do not give up if you find punch needling difficult, when you get it working it is quick and addictive!!
A lovely book. I havent tried punch needle embroidery before, but I have now ordered what I need to get started. All the projects look really nice and not too difficult. There is a lot of useful information included, the instructions are very clear and easy to understand. The pictures are great and really helpful.
