Connect to the wildlife of seven North American ecosystems by stitching these 52 beautifully accurate designs, from bears to manatees to prairie dogs and more.
Organized according to seven North American ecosystems—desert, mountain, forest, waterways, prairie, ocean, and urban—the designs by naturalist Jessica Kemper include popular species and some that are less well known or are potentially threatened.
Beginner-level patterns coexist with intermediate and advanced patterns to appeal to all embroidery lovers looking for stunning new designs.
Learn the materials, stitches (including the one-of-a-kind "fur stitch," which renders mammal fur beautifully!), and techniques to complete an embroidery project from start to finish. The simpler designs require just a few hours. Measuring approximately 3" to 4", the creatures are perfect to adorn any stitchable surface.
