DoodleStitching1Hour-01

Hello, Friends and Fans of Aimee Ray! Welcome to the latest stop in the Doodle Stitching 1-Hour Embroidery Tour! You don't have to stay a whole hour, but if you did, you'd be able to make one of the projects in Aimee's 10th book in this series.

I've been a fan of the Doodle Stitching books since the very first one. When I had the opportunity to work on some projects for a couple of them, I was elated. And I've been so happy to share about others here on my blog. This new title is especially delightful to me because it's a book I kinda wish I had written (and I say that in a completely non-jealous way). It truly makes me want to cheer Aimee on even more. AND give away an E-book copy of 1-Hour Stitching!

DoodleStitching1Hour-03

Doodle Stitching 1-Hour Embroidery embodies what I fell in love with about embroidery early on. That you can stitch something small and cute in hardly no time at all. Each of the projects in this book uses tiny motifs, which means creating a special gift or fun thing just for you doesn't have to feel overwhelming. Even if you're new to embroidery!

You can stitch up some decorations, gift tags, accessories, and so much more. Anyone who knows me will also not be surprised that I love the coffee cup coasters. Because...coffee.

The little felt critters are so very Aimee Ray, and I love seeing these in one of her books. What you don't see here, but that I also really want to try is the embroidered leaves project. Anytime I can stitch on something unusual, I go for it!

DoodleStitching1Hour-05

Part of the blog tour for 1-Hour Embroidery is a giveaway for a copy of the E-book, but Aimee is also sharing a few patterns from the book for everyone to enjoy. Yay! How sweet are these little houses? And if you like stitching, I know these stitching designs will also be a good fit. You can see one of them on the little needle minder in one of the photos above!

  9. I have most of her books. I love her style...very whimsical and forgiving for new embroiderers. Since COVID I have introduced my daughter and daughter-in-law to the skill. We get together and embellish the grandkids clothing. Aimee always has some motif that fits perfectly. Can't wait to check out the new book better.

  25. I've heard of her books even conteplated buying them, but never did. I'm sure once I get one I'll get addicted and buy the rest. Unfortunatly that's the way I am. I have always adored your small patterns and look forward to them monthly. I would love to win this book as I like to add a bit of embroidery to my quilts here and there as a surprise, an unexpected little extra touch. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
