I recently purchased the how-to-book of Kids Embroidery, by Kristin Nicholas. It’s terrific. The book is descriptive with step by step lessons on how to make an embroidery project. I have 3 girls, elementary school age that can follow the directions in the book. It’s exciting to see the vivid photos of multi-cultural children in the book, as well as the illustrations of how-to’s. I would recommend this embroidery book for anyone who’d like to give a gift to a child or adult, buy for themselves, or donate to a teacher’s classroom for projects during school. This book will keep the kids busy for hours, and in the end, they’ll have crafted a beautiful project as a gift or for themselves.

The author seems to really “get” kids; the directions and illustrations make each step involved in the projects easy to follow. The projects highlighted make the book accesible for both brand new and more experienced needle workers. My children are enjoying the feeling of accomplishment and pride as they complete each project. I’m giving this book to lots of kids on my holiday shopping list–they’ll love it!

I’ve been a fan of Kristen’s work for years. Her knitting patterns are fun and beautiful, so imagine my delight when I stumbled upon this book! This easy-to-follow book offers instructions on all of the different stitches that can be used to make all of the different colorful, creative, and innovative patterns she has designed. I’m 35 and I’m set to try my hand at this cool craft!

I picked this up at the kids public library and wow! I’m 28 years old and want to do over half of the activities in here. Kristin Nicholas really knows what kids like, and this craft book is perfect for middle schoolers and teens alike. The crafts are explained with lots of diagrams, they are hip, simple to more complicated, and cute. I compare the “cool factor” of this book to The Teen Knitting Club by Jennifer Wegner.
Knitting is big, but I do believe embroidery is next!

I enjoy this book and similiar ones that are based on a Waldorf-education approach to crafting. The projects are well-explained and useful as well as beautiful. “Kids Embroidery” is a down-to-earth book of crafting with easy to follow directions.
