From making sound stitch choices to finishing your work with a flourish, the techniques within the book are those that the author uses and frequently revisits, and are simplified to ensure that the art of embroidery is within anyone's reach. If you are a beginner, you will find in this book all the information you need to get started, and soon gain confidence in your skills.

Then progress to learning some of the more simple stitches to have at your disposal, before progressing to more complex stitches that will take your embroidery skills to the next level.

Let costume designer Coline Bavois, and The Embroidery Stitch Companion, become your indispensable guides to this timeless needlecraft.
About the Author: Coline Bavois discovered embroidery 10 years ago during her costume design studies, and it was love at first sight. She then went into training in art and fashion trades where she learnt embroidery, featherbedding, artificial floristry and millinery. Today she is a costume designer for the cinema industry, and she embroiders for films but also in Haute Couture projects, on top of her personal work in artistic embroidery. She likes to mimic natural textures, and things such as coral and tree bark are her inspirations. She enjoys working with traditional material in unusual ways by diverting the traditional techniques, but she also uses recycled materials.

She sometimes gets to exhibit her work, such as at the London-based competition, Hand and Lock, where she was one of the final contestants in 2018. After practising for several years, she wanted to popularize and pass on this craft through this book.

Coline has worked on recent films and TV series as costumier, such as Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019) and the new Amazon Prime serial, The Serpent Queen, as seamstress.
