       Introduction

      This book will introduce you to the magic of hand embroidery on organza. Whether you are an established embroidery lover, or you have decided to start stitching for the first time, you will find techniques and projects in this book to get you excited about working with sheer fabric. Embroidery is a wonderful, meditative experience in which the use of different stitches creates an exciting interplay between color and texture on fabric. Working with organza takes this craft to a whole new level, calling for a heightened focus on neatness and adjustments to stitching techniques that result in eye-catching finished pieces. This book will guide you through all of the tools you need to get started, followed by techniques and projects designed for all skill levels to learn from and enjoy. One of the wonderful aspects of hand embroidery is that it is quite easy to get started and build your skills!

      My mother-in-law, Irene, gave me the final spark of inspiration I needed to try hand embroidery, and she took me on my first trip to buy supplies. Soon after that, I remember showing her pictures of embroidery on organza, and I knew I had to try it—even as a beginner. The pieces you can create with this fabric are captivating, and I want to share its magic with you while making the techniques as accessible as possible. While it might seem intimidating to work on transparent fabric, the techniques you will learn in this book will demystify the process and help you develop exciting new approaches to embroidery art.
