A Pinch of Patchwork--a Dash of Hand Embroidery

Do you have a penchant for patchwork? Bump up your skill set and add a dash of hand embroidery to your projects! Stitch small patchwork projects, then add another layer of color, dimension, and texture with bits of hand embroidery.

Author and fabric designer Beverly McCullough (aka @FlamingoToes) has a knack for incorporating original hand-embroidered flourishes that provide the finishing touch on her designs. In Make It Mini, 13 small projects include traditional patchwork, little hexies made with English paper piecing, and even a delightful Dresden Fan design, all topped off with a pinch of hand-embroidery motifs that help you finish each project with flair.
