BY REBECCA RINGQUIST; PHOTOS BY JOHNNY MILLER

A modern approach to stitching; includes a cloth sampler designed especially for this book

For the embroiderer who appreciates fine stitches but also likes to break a few rules, Rebecca Ringquist's Embroidery Workshops is a refreshing resource for standard and outof-the-box techniques. Based on the popular classes Ringquist leads across the country, it teaches everything from the “proper” way to form a French knot to new ways to stitch three-dimensionally, work with nontraditional threads and fabrics, draw with thread freeform, and mix and match machine- and hand-stitching. Also featured are instructions for 20 innovative projects.

Instead of traditional instructions, she presents 10 frameworks (or scores) that create a guiding, but not limiting, structure. To build confidence, Wood also offers detailed lessons for stitching techniques key to improvisation, design and spontaneity exercises, and lessons on color.

DRAWING IS MAGIC Discovering Yourself in a Sketchbook by john hendriX

An interactive sketching "playground" for a new generation of illustrators, both amateur and professional

A sketchbook is an essential tool for the growth of any aspiring artist, but its blank pages can be daunting to even the most motivated. Obsessed with perfection, many wind up treating their sketchbooks more like portfolios than playgrounds. In Drawing Is Magic, author John Hendrix teaches aspiring and advanced artists to find their unique visual voices and become creative daredevils. Through his freeing, off-beat exercises, drawers learn a sophisticated philosophy of creative thinking—in a way that is totally accessible and fun.
