**VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY**
Unfortunately the website is still closed and will be until further notice whilst we continue to deal with family issues. Whilst the website's been closed our website developer decided that it was a perfect opportunity to deal with all the logistical problems we've been having. She decided the best option was to build a brand new website to resolve these problems. Hopefully it won't be much longer to wait and we look forward to welcoming you back to the new and improved Jenny Adin-Christie Embroidery shop. We are sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your continued patience and understanding. See you all very soon. Jenny and the team.

Description

Fans of Elisabetta Sforza’s exquisite monograms will be delighted to hear she has a new book out, The ABC of Padded Stitch. It’s printed in both Italian and English, and sets out her approach to padded satin stitch, monograms in particular.

It’s full of beautiful illustrations, with full explanations, step-by-step instructions and exercises to help you develop your skills in this tricky stitch. There’s even a sampler to give students a practice piece to work through the principles and understand them fully.

She offers eleven different alphabets, of increasing complexity, each with photographs of letters from them stitched in projects so you can see how they work out in practice. There are lots of variations too, with different embellishments which can be used on any letter.

Elisabetta’s other books are also available. A Flower Alphabet, A Sea to Stitch and In a Wheatfield.
