Book 1: Paint with Thread: Through the Seasons
Emillie explores the calming rhythm of the natural year through needlepainting. Featuring five exclusive designs—one for each season and a stunning all-year-round piece—the book teaches you how to use the long and short stitch to build texture, depth, and realistic shading with just one strand of thread. Each project is supported by around 60 step-by-step photos, making it ideal for beginners and seasoned crafters alike. With tips on materials, stitch techniques, and transferring designs, this beautifully produced hardback is as much a joy to read as it is to use.
Book 2: Paint with Thread: In the Garden
In her second book, Emillie celebrates the vibrant life found in gardens, with nine exclusive embroidery patterns featuring flowers, butterflies, and birds. Using the same thread painting techniques as her first book, Emillie again provides thorough step-by-step instructions and helpful visuals, ensuring accessibility for all skill levels. The book includes iron-on templates for easy transfer, expert guidance on materials and stitching, and an inspiring presentation with gold foiling and lavish photography. It’s a love letter to gardens and a valuable resource for anyone wanting to paint with thread.
