To think outside the box

love this book. We are taught as quilters to free motion quilt and practice practice Practice. This book goes way beyond and frees you to use your imagination to create movement and light in your quilting. It doesn't always have to be about the piecing. Turn simple blocks into incredible art. You can color outside the lines!

Love it!

I love the pictures of the book and very well written! I would recommend this to not just people who enjoy Embroidery but also folks who enjoy artwork as this is what Libby has turned this into. Great Coffee table book. Phillip

Eye Candy, Indeed!

Unlike a prior reviewer, I don't find this a 'one idea' book. Having done machine embroidery for more than 20 years, 'way before these new embroidery machines, I look for books like these for ideas and new techniques. I don't purchase them for how-to particularly. This is a beautiful book and one I'm delighted to have on my shelf.

Threadplay With Libby Lehman: Mastering Machine Embroidery Techniques

A ture eye candy book. Wonderful ideas which work with practice and experience. Enjoyable reading.

Great book for Free Form Embroidery

This is a great book for the beginner as well as the experienced free form embroidery hobbiest. The instructions are clear and the photos are inspiring. If you try just one of the simple designs, you will want to make another and another.
