Hart, known for her Sublime Stitching designs, now gives embroidery novices a friendly introduction to the centuries-old art. The designs and projects are likely to appeal to crafters who enjoy vintage kitsch, but the technique and stitch diagrams are useful to all. Hart's following continues to grow, and this is fun stuff.
