Stitch 50 Birds
Feather your nest with this avian collection of easy sewing patterns for beautiful bird designs, all made using simple hand-sewing techniques. Featuring the most popular and distinctive species - including garden birds, exotic birds, birds of prey, water birds, flightless birds and more - each pattern wings its way to you with step-by-step instructions and full-size templates, making them perfect for all abilities. The finished little birdies would make cute brooches, bag charms and home accessories, or can even be scaled up to make bigger plushes, all of which will make your friends into avid twitchers! Author Alison J Reid has spent months brooding away in her studio, researching all different kinds of birds, both common and rare. She has checked out their shapes, plumage and markings, and spent so much time trying to perfect their colourful, beautiful wings. It became an obsession! It was only by researching the various details that make each breed so distinctive, that Alison has been able to capture each of their unique qualities and differences. Pattern, colour and shape are key, so capturing these details in felt was important. Luckily, there are so many different colours of felt available! Felt's non-fraying, double sided, robust qualities make it easy to create all the little details that make each bird design so unique and instantly recognisable. Each bird pattern can be traced straight from the page (or enlarged if you want to sew a larger plush), and simple instructions mean that even beginners can get started. And because all the birds are sewn by hand, you don't need a sewing machine and can sit out in the garden with the birds while you sew. Whether you choose to sew just your own favourites, or make gifts for the other bird-lovers in your life, this book will provide hours of fun and inspiration.

Opus Anglicanum
Opus Anglicanum, 'English work', was one of the high arts of the Middle Ages, treasured and traded by princes and bishops across Europe. This practical guide explains how just two seemingly simple stitches - split stitch and underside couching - can give extraordinarily complex and sophisticated results that exploit the qualities of silk and gold thread. It introduces new techniques through fourteen projects that progress in difficulty. The book advises on shading, adding detail and authentic use of colour; gives in-depth instruction on stitching faces, hair and hands, as well as wings, animals and landscaping and includes detailed reproductions of original pieces, as well as some with a contemporary twist. The book concentrates on the heyday of Opus Anglicanum, from the twelfth century to the fourteenth, when mastery of this art was at its height.
Cosmic Go
Takemiya Masaki's 'Cosmic Go' is undoubtedly the best go book I have ever read. I constantly come back to this book, and with each reading I become more convinced of the need to make it available in other languages than Japanese. Indeed, this book gives me a joy I would like to share with as many go players as possible. I am sure it will help you discover not only a new approach to the game, but also a new universe of go: one of philosophy and poetry. Miyakawa Wataru

She would join different fabrics together and sow them over the hole and so many other techniques she used. All these fascinated me, and I hoped to do the same one day. Unfortunately, she passed on before I could learn from her. My love for mending, like my grandmother, forced me to learn the skills involved to gain knowledge of several mending techniques.Most of what I learned over the years has been collated and captured in this book, Mending Clothes.Several learning points are covered in this book, such as: An explanation of the clothe mending process and the importance of mending your old clothes.Basic sewing skills and hand sewing mending stitches (running, slip, whip stitch, etc.) to get you started.Vital tips and tricks before and when mending your clothes.Mending techniques for your clothes such as darning, patching, sashiko, and embroidery.Sample clothe mending projects (such as repairing holes in jeans, shirts, socks, etc. using different methods) with illustrations that will help to sharpen your mending skillsAnd so much more!So, what are you waiting for?Get a copy of this book RIGHT NOW to get started

Memories are treasures because they continue to give joy and comfort for many life spans. As they spend time with their grandchildren, grandparents are acutely aware of this treasure, believing it is a final opportunity to leave a legacy. M矇m矇's Memory Quilt is the loving story of a grandmother and her granddaughter and how they worked to preserve their special memories by stitching a beautiful, flower garden quilt. In the process, they made more memories while forming a lasting bond forever etched in a young woman's heart. We hope you will be inspired to find a way to preserve your own special memories!
