Taking cues from the natural world, we wander through the author's contemporary fibre art practice to encourage and support you to find your own creative path. Her practice is as untamed as the New Zealand landscape that inspires her, free of rules, guided by intuition and joy in the process. Explore colour, texture, flora, textiles and stitch alongside the magic moments, happy accidents, perfect coincidences and ridiculous randomness of the creative process.

Chapters include Fleur Woods' inspiring backstory, through to inspiration she takes from nature to create her art, to more practical chapters showcasing her favourite stitches, steps on fabric dyeing, and advice on threads, needles and fabrics to use. Embracing the slow, contemplative nature of stitch you can reconnect your creative spirit to reimagine embroidery as a contemporary tool for mark making.

This book wraps you in a warm blanket of nostalgia, grounds you in nature and inspires your senses to allow you to travel down your own creative path gathering all the precious little details meant for you along the way.
