Timeless Toile

Read the press release about this book from Design Originals.

Wander back to a place in time when mothers and grandmothers took time to make their surroundings beautiful with needlework and lovingly handmade items. Learn how to turn popular toile fabrics with embroidery stitches and easy-to-find embellishments into quilts, wall hangings, pillows, and purses... over two dozen projects. Learn embroidery stitches, how to easily transfer full-size designs, binding instructions, tea-dye techniques, and much more. You will delight in the glorious full-color photography, the brief history of toile, and the delightful little stories that accompany many of the designs. Learn to make various quilting designs with visual diagrams and easy-to-follow instructions.

Sherri's Favorite's: I am a button collector so I love the bouquet patterns which feature buttons as the flowers. The Calico Dog and Cat pillows are wonderful and combine hand embroidery with quilting techniques. I also love all the animal latterns and quotes shared, including some fun roosters which have been a popular request around here lately!
