In my Signature Series, you will learn how to replicate these techniques. Many of these
techniques may be familiar to you, such as choosing thread, stabilizer and needles, but
you will wind up doing them in completely new ways. Learning the technique is the
first part of the equation; the second part is the context of how you use it. You will be
given insight into my techniques as well as on the actual artwork and designs. You will
learn firsthand how to create miniature embroidered tapestries, stitch on photographs,
create 3D embroidery and artistically stitched designs, how to create 3D butterflies, and
something you probably have never done: deconstructing threads to create my exclusive
"Drip" designs.
When I was putting together the first designs for the Signature Series, I wanted them to
come in a stunning hardcover book. This book is full of beautiful embroidery designs
and step-by-step instructions. The book has examples of my fine art pieces, glimpses
into my studio practice and photos from my art exhibits. I’ve even included some of my
original sketches and insight into creating embroidered art.
