Embroidery Garden

Pick up a needle. Find an hour. Make something beautiful.

Embroidery Garden is a beginner's guide to hand embroidery built around one of the most naturally satisfying subjects there is. Twenty-five projects span flowers, botanicals, and garden creatures — bees, butterflies, mushrooms, gnomes, lavender sprigs, trailing vines — each one designed to be approachable, rewarding, and genuinely lovely to look at when it's done.

Before the first project, you get everything you need to start: an illustrated guide to 25+ stitches, a full walkthrough of tools, materials, and pattern transfer, and clear instruction on finishing work. Every project that follows includes full-color photography of the finished piece, a complete materials list, a stitch reference, step-by-step illustrations, and a full-size template ready to trace straight from the page.

Projects are organized across three sections — Flowers, Botanicals, and Garden Friends — building naturally from simple single motifs to fuller, more confident compositions. The skills you learn in the first project carry through to the last.
