fingertips."
- Paste Magazine "Perfect for cool parents and hipsters alike."
- The Advocate, online "By taking this old-fashioned technique, and
even some old-fashioned designs, but adding in updated sayings, her
designs balance precariously on that line between awful and
awesome."
- BUST, online "Getting your stitchy snark on is so easy, you'll
wonder why you haven't been doing it for years!"
- MAKE Magazine "What's appealing about the patterns featured is
that they have a real sense of humour and irony about them."
- Textile Artist "The glossy pages feature photos of the finished
products on the left-hand side with patterns on the right, if
you're so inclined to put needle to canvas yourself. Otherwise, the
50 different sayings do quite well as a mini coffeetable book, or a
nice gift for the friend who's not afraid to combine the whimsical
with a straight shot of sass."
- Red Eye Chicago "Julie has a new book coming out TODAY and it's
even better than her first!"
