A series of Embroidery Hoop Art based on books. These were done as sample fabric art pieces based on the theme “books that moved me” for my local library.

I had so much fun sewing these mainly because I love my books, it was difficult choosing which ones to base my embroidery hoop art upon… “The Little Prince” was a easy choice since it is one of my all-time favourites and I have read it multiple times, not just for the story but also for the simply beautiful illustrations done by the author himself. Then there is “The Alchemist” which is a book i remember fondly from having to analyse it during literature class, the only book i truly enjoyed during the class. The phrase “when you want something, the universe conspires to help you achieve it” just stood out for me then (and again now, since i highlighted and underlined it multiple times in my school days) Lastly, I picked a book I only just got round to reading “Invisible Cities” because I am enjoying its rich descriptions of various cities (or just Venice really.)
