About The Book

This guide is a must-have title for any hand stitcher's library. It's a beginner-friendly to advanced embroidery primer, with a stitch dictionary, instructions for successfully embroidering on footwear, and vibrant ideas for turning ordinary canvas shoes or espadrilles into personalized, eye-catching embroidered shoes. Includes introductory information on what you will need: shoes, tools, and thread followed by instructions for how to prepare the shoes you want to embroider, transfer the design, and stitch. Alternatively design and make your own custom espadrilles with the multi-sized pattern. Designs range from densely stitched mountain ranges to wispy florals and everything in between. Stitchers can also scan the QR codes for further video instructions.
