Livro de amostras de apliques de jardim de arte popular por Erica Kaprow

The 30-block layout gives plenty of variety for practicing different stitches, and the portable size means I can take it along on car trips without hassle. My first couple of blocks came together really quickly since the folk art motifs are simple but charming.

I've been carrying this book in my tote bag to work on the blocks during lunch breaks, and the wool appliqué designs are whimsical without being fussy. The instructions for the folk art motifs are clear enough for a beginner like me.

The 30 blocks are laid out perfectly for a sampler, and I love that it's truly portable since each block is worked on its own. The whimsical folk art designs are exactly what I was hoping for, and Erica's instructions make the whole project feel approachable even for a beginner like me.
