I've got an excellent Blog Tour giveaway for you guys today! This amazing book by Christen Brown is such a unique and great idea. It is a step by step planner/ journal to help you create, plan, and keep a record of 12 embellished embroidery pieces! If you love organizing and list making as much as I do, you will love this book, it's beautiful, inspiring and fun to use.
The Embellished Art Embroidery Project Planner is designed so that you can customize everything in the book for your own needs. There are chapters such as My Year, My Creative Goals and My Action Plan, all to help you organize your thoughts and plans by day, month and year. You can keep track of all your inspiration, materials and how long projects take (or how long you'd like them to take!) Plus there are check off lists for when you complete goals (this is my favorite part! ;)

I just recently started doing embroidery and I'm falling in love with it. This summer I'm working on making some cute embroidery pins for my jean jacket (some of them using your mini leaf patterns). I also recently started crocheting and am exploring Amigurumi which is so much fun. I wood burn as well... I have a lot of hobbies! I love trying new crafts. I found your etsy page this morning, your patterns are some of the best I've seen! Can't wait to try more.
