"Embroidery is so often created as a piece of work to be hung on a wall so it’s lovely to create something which has an alternative practical use. An embroidery covered book is such a beautiful thing which can be kept by the stitched or made for someone as a special celebration gift. To me the arts and crafts period was such a special time of design and workmanship and this book cover showcases the principles of the era beautifully."
