"This is based on inspirational ideas that can be found using trees as a source of design. It tells how to look and record what you see, such as textures, colours, patterns and shapes, and interpret these into creating your own unique design. These can be used in all aspects of embroidery including quilting, freestyle and decoration for cushions and panels, etc." - publisher's website.
