House Plant Book by Sue Spargo

A little indoor garden, grown with wool, colour and hand stitching.

Pick up your needle and spend some happy stitching time with House Plant by Sue Spargo. Playful potted plants fill this quilt and wall-hanging design, with layered leaves, colourful pots and embroidered details that invite a closer look.

This is a project to enjoy a little at a time. Wool and cotton appliqué create the shapes, while decorative stitches and dimensional embroidery bring texture and personality to the plants. Choose colours you love and enjoy watching your stitched garden take shape.

More than a lovely picture to admire

Inside are project instructions, pattern layouts and stitch diagrams to guide your making. The design gives you opportunities to explore layering, embellishment and texture as you work towards a finished piece measuring approximately 70 × 65 cm (27½ × 25½ inches)—a cheerful feature for a sewing room or favourite corner of your home.

There is a practical extra, too: the included Potted Project Folder pattern gives you another way to enjoy the collection.
