I found this to be true with this book. I have been stitching for close to 60 years. My grandmother taught me to embroider as soon as I could hold a needle because, being a Southern woman, she felt that 'ladies should know how to do handwork'. The basic skills taught in this book are not new to me. What is new is the reminder that even with the simplest of stitches, we can achieve great texture and interest to the surface of our piece. Slowing down and stitching is both meditative and rewarding and I think that is the biggest lesson I took away from this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Approachable book packed with ideas, resources and knowledge *by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2017* This book is a great intro to the art of soothing, introspective surface design. I really appreciated the beginning chapter on hand-stitching essentials. While I'm an avid quilter, the refresher course in choosing one's fiber, tools and other materials was very useful - as was the primer on stitching techniques that followed. I haven't made a fly stitch or a french knot in about 20 years, so the how-to reminders was helpful. I loved that Lynn gave instructions on stitching on paper and on fabric. Sometimes you just want a little something to take with you - whether you're putting it in an art journal, a mixed media piece or even making a label for a quilt. This is just the book to help that process along.The projects are very approachable, as is the writing style of the book. Creating your own patterns and using improv stitching allows one to grow as they work their way through the chapters. I am very excited to try embellishing photos with stitching. And, I'm looking forward to putting my own spin on some stamped and stitched runner projects.This is exactly the kind of book I like to sit down with for a few hours with a cup of tea and of course, chocolate, making my way through it and either visualizing or jotting down ideas of what else I would do, based on the ideas presented. It's one of those books that is like a friend - and I see myself returning to it often. hank you for writing this and sharing your gifts with the rest of us. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clever projects and Good Tips *by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2018* Well written, informative book with fun mixed media hand stitching techniques and projects. Great sections on techniques, tools to use and basic stitches which will lead the reader to use their creativity to make their own projects or one of the many clever projects the author has designed. Great information for beginners or more advanced stitchers. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/42118651-the-hand-stitched-surface-slow-stitching-and-mixed-media-techniques](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/42118651-the-hand-stitched-surface-slow-stitching-and-mixed-media-techniques) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
