If you come into Zede’s regularly, you know we love Karen Linduska! We’ve had her travel to our store to teach twice in the last two years, we can’t keep her first book in stock, and we actually teach a continuing education class based on that book!

So, we love her!

And we are thrilled to be carrying her new book! Creative Uses for Decorative Stitches is an excellent follow up to her first book Your Machine’s Decorative Stitches, actually it might even be better! As with many things, the more you practice your technique, research new products and really get in touch with your creative self, you produce something amazing! That’s exactly what Karen did- she’s at the top of her game in this book.

If you want to own it…which you do…come into Zede’s or purchase it here.

Here is a little excerpt from the inside. I just wanted to show that Karen’s new book is not only relevant to stitchers who want to get the most out of their machine’s decorative stitches, but it is stylistically current. Karen has excellent color sense and she’s a master of proportion and composition. If you have ever wondered why your art quilts or other designs aren’t as pleasing to the eye as you’d like, take a lesson from Karen and do a few of her projects. You’ll learn what really makes a design POP!

So, if you’re in the Columbia, MO area, check out our class list and sign up for “Fiber Fun”- it’s our class based on Karen’s work. Also, sign up for our newsletter so that you know when Karen is coming back!
