Description
There is no name more closely linked to ornate and fanciful fabric designs than Tula Pink. Sewists and quilters have long delighted in using her fabric to create whimsical sewn creations. Now hand embroiderers, too, can join the fun and stitch her signature designs with needle and tread!
In Coloring with Thread, you'll find 17 of Tula's animal and floral designs from her best-selling fabric collections rendered and primed for hand embroidery. Step-by-step stitch instructions for over 20 embroidery stitches are included to help you bring adorable bunnies, chipmunks, octopi, and elephants to life right in your hands. Each motif features a color guide and thread color suggestions selected by Tula herself to insure a gorgeous finished design. Plus, you'll find every motif on CD-rom, where they are ready to size and print for your individual project needs.
Whether you follow her color guides or make each design your own, you'll love coloring with thread and stitching the whimsical world of Tula Pink!

This is a beautiful book filled with Tula Pink images brought to life through embroidery. The title is something I wouldn't mind just displaying on a coffee table because of the beauty and artistry of the designs. As for function, this book does an amazing job of explaining and providing direction for the various stitches used. Even someone new to embroidery could gain confidence to complete one of the design projects. All aspects are covered and the instructions, pictures, and outlines are clear enough to follow. This would make a great addition to the embroidery crafter's library.

A beautiful book! The images are stunning in their layout, and the various complexity required to make them. Some images would be good for a beginner, while others require more skill to make. Luckily, there is an extensive stitch guide at the beginning that either teaches or refreshes you on how to make the needed stitches, and a guide for each design on how to use which stitch where. The book comes with a cd of the patterns for easy printing out and transferring. According to the intro, the patterns are based on an interpretation of a colouring book, which I would consider buying just based on the designs already featured. If you're looking for something interesting to embroider and only have a few stitches in your repertoire, these are patterns you can tackle and build your skill as you work your way through the book. Highly recommend!
