Fat, striped, sweet, or grumpy, this book offers 380 embroidery stitch patterns for cat lovers. Each of the 15 themed pattern sets offers a variety of designs that range from simple to complex and includes photos of the finished patterns, a stitch guide, and full-size templates.

From kitty corners and borders to classic felines and festive holiday cats, Cat Lady Embroidery has a cat to embroider for every occasion. With an overview of tools and materials, instructions on getting started, a thread conversion chart, and a step-by-step review of the 15 basic embroidery stitches used, this book is perfect for embroiderers of all skill levels.

Created by a group of amazingly talented artists, this collection contains a variety of different embroidery styles, so there are folk art-inspired cats, cartoon-style cats, trendy cat-themed patches, and realistic pet portrait-style motifs. There's even a project inspiration gallery showcasing wonderful ways to use these motifs--maybe you'll be inspired to embroider a cat peeking out from a shirt pocket or smiling up at you from a pair of slippers.

  • Breed-specific feline faces
