Punch Needle Toys

Punch Needle embroidery is a technique usually used to create household items such as pillow covers and wall hangings, but this unique collection includes designs and instructions for 20 adorable and original toys.
Designer and author Caro Bello has created a fun collection of 20 distinctive animals, including Bruno the beaver, Enrique the elephant, and Felipe the fox. Each of the characters has its own style, and Caro uses a variety of traditional and modern stitches to create their individual outfits.
The toys are made flat and then joined and stuffed to bring them to life. There are instructions and photographs that explain step-by-step how to start embroidering with the Punch Needle. Caro explains everything from the tools and materials to choose to techniques for doing the different stitches (traditional and modern) used in the projects and for transferring the embroidery designs to fabric. There are also general tips on how to hold the needle correctly, color choice, and techniques for correcting mistakes. Caro explains the four golden rules of needle embroidery to ensure the best stitching results. He also provides tips on special finishing techniques to create different looks, including tufts, brushes, and pompoms, as well as the best techniques for stitching and filling toys once the embroidery is finished.
The toys are cleverly designed with details on the front and back, and the patterns have been included in full size so you don't have to worry about enlarging them.
