<p>Whether you are a beginner or an experienced sewer, you will find this book an invaluable guide to the fascinating art of machine embroidery. No longer will you view your sewing machine as simply a practical way to make and repair clothes; not indeed will you be limited to running stitch, zigzag and buttonholes! You will be able to create unique clothes and accessories, and discover the almost endless possibilities for decoration within easy reach of your sewing machine. Creative Machine Embroidery shows you how to achieve the many textures possible with machine embroidery-from cobweb lace to embroidered denim; from ribbon lace to simulated beading. The book contains 20 easy-to-follow projects, with step-by-step instructions and diagrams. It not only provides an introduction to various machine embroidery techniques, but also shows you how to use them to best effect-in clothing, hats, bridal bouquets, belts, jewelry cases, cushions and much more. Far more than simply a "how-to" book, it encourages you to explore and experiment with your own ideas. There is advice on various techniques and equipment, as well as what to do when things go wrong, plus useful hints and advice about fabrics, how to car for your sewing machine and a checklist of what to consider before you embark on your own machine embroidery projects. With projects ranging from the practical to the whimsical. Creative Machine Embroidery will prove a constant source of inspiration to anyone who loves to sew.</p>
