Threads of Treasure

How to Make, Mend, and Find Meaning Through Thread

Sara Bernes

Description

Modern society has put a premium on producing, and sometimes that hustle culture (Instagram likes! Etsy sales!) can drain some joy from crafting. This book helps embroidery fans abandon that notion and, instead, realize that life is about treasuring what's important.

Threads of Treasure features interviews with 14 creative stitchers who share photos of their creations that encourage readers to incorporate empowering concepts into their stitching. Three step-by-step projects, personalized to the reader's own preferences, teach you how to:

  • Use your threads to treasure and display your life’s meaningful special objects. For instance, a special token of a favourite moment like a seashell, an event ticket or a trinket from childhood.
  • Use your threads to treasure your worn and well-loved things, like your favourite garment, with mending and adornment (while also treasuring our environment).
  • Use your threads to treasure your small everyday moments – sit still, breathe deeply and enjoy the making process – by creating a daily practice.
