Tiny Friends: A Guide to Mosaic Embroidery (Tomomi Mimura)

Tiny Friends: A Guide to Mosaic Embroidery

by Tomomi Mimura

Steel yourselves! Are you ready for unreasonable cuteness? Imagine a flock of sheep that fit in the palm of your hand, a tiger smaller than a teacup, a miniature kangaroo and her even tinier baby, all brought to life thanks to a patchwork of yarn scraps. 

Japanese embroidery artist Tomomi Mimura's Tiny Friends is Mimura's first book to be published in English, bringing a broader audience to her technique of mosaic embroidery in the most charming way imaginable. In Tiny Friends, Mimura introduces readers to 13 animal characters in the form of stuffed toys and finger puppets. Mosaic embroidery utilizes simple darning stitches in a truly original way, and Mimura walks her audience through the process with the help of detailed photography, illustrations, and step-by-step instructions. All you need to get started are an embroidery hoop, fabric, leftover yarn, a needle, and a pair of scissors! Make some magic!
