I pull out some embroidered book covers from my own collection and talk through how and why I made them and show you how to easily make a concertina book and a book signature so you can make the whole thing!
Cover embroidery techniques include goldwork, crewelwork, shisha mirrors, beading and slow stitching. See close up pictures of these covers on my community page!

One of the things I am rabid about is artists of every sort SIGNING and dating their works. For eons we women have been made to feel like our art is 'just women's work' and so many beautiful historical items are not signed or dated, which drives historians mad. I implore everyone to sign/date everything, even the smallest or practice pieces. BTW, I think those book covers are exquisite and as a junk journal maker, I can hardly wait to start one.

You are so bad!!! I now have more hobbies!! I LOVE slow stitching - have made a couple of book covers, also loving goldwork - not brave enough to design my own pattern, am going to start crewel work as well. I may need a note for my boss - they keep insisting that I work!!! xx

I thought your second slow stitched book was especially beautiful! How lucky that you found that lovely piece with the flowers! You pieced everything together so beautifully. I love slow stitching and have made many journal covers that have had slow stitching. Once I discovered slow slow stitching, I immediately began embellishing my work with it! 😃❤️

I watched your poppy vlog several times because I was so fascinated by the whole process, from walking through the poppy field to the end of making the book. I never thought of making a book out of embroidery but is such a great idea. I asked my sister, who is a burgeoning artist if she would mind making a drawing of her anemones which she was glad to do. Oh, and by the way, the music on the poppy vlog was my favorite background music......please do more of these. Thank you as always.💌

Thank you Sarah, I have always been fascinated by all the various little books you have occasionally wafted in front of us, and also I did see the lovely one with the poppies at the time, but it was really helpful to see this, and see what options there are to make books, and exactly how to go about it, so once again I am completely inspired, and as ever you have given me the confidence to try something I wouldn't normally have tried!. Thank you very much😺💙

I still haven't started my slow stitch sampler. I wanted to have a plan of sorts of what to work toward. Yesterday I finally decided to use my slow stitch sampler to make a new bible cover for the bible I carry to church. It's smaller and much lighter weight than my study bible which doesn't need a cover. My bible bible stays at home. Having somewhat of a plan will help me know where to avoid placing anything too fussy or dimensional on the back or where the binding bends. I'm going to watch your lettering video so I can stitch a couple favorite scriptures. My current cover is quite dirty and ugly, IE a really durable synthetic canvas type that is strictly functional. Really tired of it. I want everything I wear or carry to be beautifully embroidered now.
