Here Japanese designer Yumiko Higuchi presents embroidery motifs to be stitched the usage of just one or two colors—creating patterns and designs which are more evocative for their form than for a play of colors. Each and every embroidery design is paired with a simple craft project, transforming the stitched fabric into a functional object, including pouches, pillows, aprons, and more.

With beautiful photographs, clear step by step instructions, and detailed diagrams, Zakka Embroidery will likely be an inspiring guide for those new to embroidery and a delightful experience for those experienced with needle and thread.
