Description:
Introducing a brand new series of books from Inspirations – The Design Collective.
In this first volume, we’re giving Pincushions a makeover.
Each designer was given the same brief. There were no rules. No guidelines. The only criteria: the final project must house pins and needles.
The result? The most imaginative, clever, and artistic pincushions you have ever seen.
"We asked twelve of the world's most talented needlework artisans to design a pincushion… and the result was phenomenal."
