Learn from one of the best - Trish Burr shares embroidery methods that have worked for her over the years in her latest book Whitework with Colour.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The flexibility of Whitework with Colour has opened the door to a whole new world of possibilities. There are no limits to the subjects one can stitch, and you will find nestled among the pages a wide variety of projects which will entice you to get stitching.

There are seventeen projects in the book, ranging from complete beginner to more advanced. No special skills are required, but a little practice will go a long way in helping you to master the technique.

Trish believes colour is the key to any successful piece of embroidery, so she has used quite unusual colour combinations and stitched some of the projects in more than one colourway to show how different the same design can look when stitched in other shades.

Whitework with Colour differs slightly from Trish's previous books in that she has decided to lean more on her own experience and share the methods that have worked best for her over the years. The embroidery is innovative, great fun, and seriously addictive.
