Book Review – Modern Primitive Embroidery

February 28, 2020 by Shellie Wilson 1 Comment

t’s not just ’embroidery.’ It’s Primitive Embroidery. And it’s the greatest thing to happen to needle art in decades. With these fresh designs by Jennie Baer, the key to creating modern primitive art is truly in your hands! Follow the directions to transfer a simple line drawing onto fabric, then use basic stitches and easy embellishments to finish textile beauty that’s very new, very you. We give each pattern in three sizes, so you don’t have to worry about enlarging or reducing. Just ‘choose and use.’

12 designs: Snow Birds; Picture the Positive; Be Thou Humble; All Is Well; Welcome Friends; Flower in Disguise; Each Day [is a gift]; Winter Berry; and a tree shown four ways with foliage for Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
