كتاب الإبداع في التطريز: مزج القديم بالجديد بقلم كريستن براون

I’ve already started hoarding old hankies to try the lace-and-ribbon layering techniques, and the instructions are clear enough for a beginner like me.

I love how the book breaks down mixing lace, trims, and vintage buttons into clear, manageable projects. The photos make it easy to see exactly how to layer old linens with new embroidery for a unique look.

I’ve been collecting vintage hankies for years and never knew how to use them until I flipped through this book—the section on mixing lace with old linens gave me three project ideas before I even finished chapter one. The photography makes every embellishment look doable, not fussy.
