Hazel Blomkamp has a new book coming out in June. It is titled "Crewel Intentions" and uses techniques from stump work, Brazilian embroidery and many other styles of stitching to make her crewel designs modern and interesting. The article below shows off some of the projects in the book, which are all elegant and light in feel. It will be available in English, Afrikaans, Russian and eventually also in French.
