reading: complete embellishing

when it comes to decorating, sometimes that little extra detail (a bead, ribbons, a stencil) is all it takes to finish a project. so i was psyched to see kayte terry’s new book “complete embellishment” which covers tons of different embellishing techniques from appliqué and patchwork to ribbon embroidery and printmaking. what more can you ask? click here to order a copy on amazon.
