The Utterly Random and Completely Spectacular Christmas List!
I have long been a fan of Eppie’s approach to embroidery and craft through her business, The Fabled Thread. Eppie is a joy to talk to and her enthusiasm and love of teaching people how to create their own embroidered items is infectious.
It was a lovely moment to see that Eppie had included my Passementerie book ‘Passementerie handcrafting contemporary trimmings, fringes and more’ as one of her top 10 picks for Christmas gifts! Thank you Eppie for spreading the word about my wonderful, yet endangered craft, of Passementerie.
‘Libby is working to keep the endangered craft of Passementerie not only alive but kicking with colour. If you are based in London, look out for her workshops, but if not, this book is colour-rich, will teach you a new skill and supports a very lovely, wonderful artist!’ Passementerie by Elizabeth Ashdown, £36.99 |
“Purchased as a gift for my daughter, she absolutely loves it! Easy to follow, great images, clear instructions with plenty of hints/tips. Really good explanations on tools and materials with alternative options if you don’t want to splash out on expensive kit to start with. Projects are lovely and inspiring. A really vibrant book!”
