Mystical Stitches: Embroidery for Personal Empowerment and Magical Embellishment

Great book, colorful and vivid. Packed full of ideas and inspiration! The instructions for the stitches are clear and easy to understand. I expected to like the book, but it is even better than i thought. It's a bargain, too.

This is such a lovely work of art! Very well laid out and easy to understand, even for beginners. Very durable hardback, will last many generations! I've made a few designs and they were so fun to do! The possibilities are endless. If you are someone who does fiber arts and are spiritually inclined, this is for you!

Love this book and the author made embroidery easy to understand for beginners. Love the witchy and whimsical vibes!

Absolutely in love with this book! I feel like my embroidery work improved greatly after reading this! Every page is eye candy, and filled with soooo many useful tips and interesting projects. She even includes a section about color theory. 10/10 recommend you pick it up!

It's great to find a kindred spirit in the embroidery world. This book is great for beginners and experienced stitchers alike. Bold images and a thought provoking approach to embroidery make this book a keeper for me. The projects are beautiful and leave space for your own creativity.

I didn't know this is what I needed! I love the 'create your own pattern' style, instead of following a pattern exactly. Pros and cons to both styles, but I haven't seen enough of this one. Beautiful pictures, excellent (and realistic) examples, a TON of stitch help, and definitely worth every penny. Do yourself a favor and buy the physical version. It's beautiful for leaving out on the table in between projects. I honestly am in love with this book.

I never thought I could create such a beautiful patters and this book help me with it! Try unique spiritual approach to embroidery. The only thing I wish, is that the small patters were bigger to just copy. They are too small so I have draw a bigger version.

Really meaningful. I love this book. What a great reference and inspiration for making your creations really special

Simplesmente maravilhoso!

Das Buch ist es wirklich wert. Beschreibt alle wichtigen Techniken, Materialkunde, Stiche usw. auch für Stickanfänger. Viele wunderschöne magische, mystische Motive, aber auch Tiere, Pflanzen, Gegenstände uvm. Alle mit Stickstichschlüssel und man kann sie durchpausen und nach Belieben vergrößern oder abwandeln. Anleitungen für Talismane, Patches,.... Das Buch regt an, eigene Motive zu entwerfen oder Motive aus seinem eigenen Kulturkreis zu verwenden und auf Stoff, Kleidung, Taschen usw. zu sticken. Der Fantasie und Kreativität sind keine Grenzen gesetzt. Zusätzlich gibt es Anleitungen für Meditationen und eine interessante spirituelle Einleitung. Das Buch ist in englischer Sprache.

The spirit with which this book was written was truly beautiful. The author's heart is in the right place. She offers several instructions that are very clear and well illustrated, projects of assorted applications. The images are so well done and inspirational. She even includes rituals and a spiritual component to the meditative process of hand embroidery - so it's not just about getting the colours and designs, but about your intentions - relaxation and how the entire experience can help you personalize your clothes, accessories or gifts to be an expression of the heart. This book is a MUSt for anyone who hand-embroiders - beginner or expert = something for everyone.

This book definitely boosted my confidence and creativity. Other books have immaculate examples of embroidery I just can't live up to. The artists designs are easy to follow and the tips on creating magic based pieces of artwork that can double as talismans and manifestations are wonderful. Thank you so much.

Precioso!
