Product Description

About this product

Learn how to stitch 20 gorgeous gingham embroidery designs with best-selling author, Carolyn Forster.

Discover simple stitches and stunning designs for the perfect on-the-go embroidery project.

Chicken scratch embroidery (known also as Amish embroidery, Broderie Suisse, Depression Lace, Hoover Lace, Snowflake Embroidery, Australian Cross Stitch and Tenerife Lace) is an easy-to-learn technique that involves embroidering a handful of stitches on to a gingham surface to create stunning motifs with a lace-like appearance. The size and colour of the squares can influence the look and scale of the motif, as well as your chosen thread colours, and the result can range from beautifully simple to exquisitely complex embroidery designs.
