The Geometry of Hand Sewing by Natalie Chanin
Product
From the moment I first flicked through this book, I knew I wanted to sell it in the shop. This is an amazing book, full of different, but simple stitches that you can combine and develop to embellish almost anything with.
The book is ring-bound and gives diagrams and photographs for each of the stitch techniques shown.
A key part of the book are the grids that are provided at the back. These can be removed and allow you to mark out where your stitches are going to be placed for your chosen pattern.
If like me, you have done free-hand embroidery before and wanted crisp, exact lines that didn't quite come to pass, then this is the book for you. I promise it will take your geometric sewing up a few levels.
You may also be interested in buying embroidery hoops and wool thread to complete your projects or the Japanese embroidery books available.

Postage and Packaging
You can read all about P&P here.
The P&P costs applied are very transparent. No additional costs are added on, you simply pay for the cost of packaging and the cost of postage. I don't offer free P&P because what that usually means is that the cost of P&P has been added to the cost of goods. I think it is better to assume that my customers aren't daft and would rather have transparent P&P costs than the pretence of 'Free P&P' with potentially inflated prices on the items that they are buying.
