For Christmas 2023, we have the perfect way to celebrate…
The second edition of our Design Collective series is now available, celebrating Christmas in stitch with 12 exceptional projects.
From nutcrackers to wreaths, trees to bonbons, 12 of the world’s most talented designers have shared their celebration of Christmas through the eye of their needle, creating some of the most exquisite, breathtaking embroidery you’ve seen.
Never before have Inspirations dedicated an entire book to the festivity and beauty of a stitched Christmas
"Introducing the second volume in The Design Collective. We asked twelve of the world’s most talented needlework artisans to each design a project to celebrate Christmas with stitch. Each designer was given the same brief. There were no rules. No guidelines. The only criteria: a connection to Christmas. The result? A fabulous range of unique responses, including ornaments and decorations for your home, special gifts and a spectacular bonbon for the Christmas table."
