This is the latest book in the beautiful Make In France series from Murdoch Books. The common theme amongst all the craft books I've seen published by Murdoch Books is the stunning photography, and this book certainly fits with that. The first third of the book contains beautiful full page photos of each of the designs.
The second section of the book has the instructions and materials list and the last section of the book consists of charts and templates. These embroidery & cross stitch designs are intended to be added to a pre-made item such as a t-shirt or cushion.
The designs range from the simple to more complex and detailed. They can be used on clothing, soft furnishings or to make pictures/wall hangings for a child's bedroom. They would be great for upcycling children's clothing as well as creating unique gifts.
