For many years a byword for pretty and refined French taste, the esteemed haberdashery Maison Sajou supplies the most discerning home sewers with their linens, embroidery silks, and patterns, as well as a mouthwatering selection of sewing equipment, from embroidery scissors to needles, thimbles, and thread cards. This book brings that sophisticated sensibility to twenty desirable projects for you to make for yourself and your home. Bedlinen, tablecloths, cushions, and smaller but equally gorgeous accessories, such as book covers and spongebags, all acquire French style with simple but lovely embroidery, neatly stitched monograms, and some all-but-forgotten (but easily learned) techniques such as drawn threadwork or pointelle borders.
