Doodle Stitching Transfer Pack: 300+ Embroidery Patterns

These templates are so much fun!! I was a little hesitant to order them not knowing what they all looked like beforehand and upon receiving them I wasn't quite as sure either, since they are in a much different style than I usually do. However, these totally broke me out of my comfort zone and I'm having so much fun! My go-to with embroidery has been flowers, letters, basic stitches, etc. This was my first project using satin stitch and I LOVED how it turned out! There's a good variety of templates, some targeted more specifically towards children, but they would be really cute on children's clothes or a baby blanket. It takes the guesswork out of coming up with a design and drawing it out - lets you skip right to the fun part! The only thing I'd note is that the ink is pretty dark once it's ironed onto the fabric, and it is NOT washable. Once it's ironed on it's permanent! After being so used to using nonpermanent fabric markers I usually treat the template as a guideline rather than a direct template, but with these you have to cover the ink completely or it will show through. I didn't see this mentioned in any of the other reviews or product description, so just be aware of that. One fix I thought of for this though is ironing it onto the backside of the fabric and then using a fabric marker to trace it on the front (holding it up to the light). Depending on the fabric color and type this may not work as well but it's a good workaround if you're working with thin lines or want to deviate from the pattern a little bit. Overall, I'm so glad I ordered these and I can't wait to make more of them!

I really like this book. I’m new to hand embroidery and so I look for simplistic patterns to work with. This is a perfect book for a beginner like me. There are tons of designs with clean lines, and they’re super simple to iron on. The designs transfer very clean and bold on to fabric and felt. The designs are quite simplistic and I do feel a lot of the subject matter is geared towards children, but there are still plenty of great options for more general designs. I love the pocket attached to the back of the book to save your cutout transfers to use again. That was an excellent addition. I’m very happy with this book and hope the author releases more like this with an even larger variety of designs.

The designs in this book are really cute. I love to embroider, and these patterns just make me happy. I think they have more of a whimsical personality than those from Aunt Martha's, but are right on par with the Sublime Stitching collections. I enjoyed Aimee Ray's Doodle Stitching Book, and many of those patterns are in the transfer pack. However, the original book didn't include any iron-on patterns. I know I could take the time to trace them all with a transfer pencil and make my own iron-ons, but I'm very lazy and I want to get right to stitching. My only gripe with the books is that it can be difficult to find a pattern that you may be looking for. Yes, the book is organized by "Nature" and "Celebration" and other sections, but there are no page numbers on the transfer pages and no image index to reference which transfers may be found under which heading. The transfers have to have a blank sheet of paper adjacent as to not bleed onto the other transfer sheets, so it's a little difficult to peruse.

I loved the original book and I used many patterns for t shirts. The transfew book makes the copying of these super cute patterns that much easier. The patterns are all the ones features in the original Doodle stiching and more...there are more sizes, more combinations and more designs. You might wonder why to get this book in place of the origina. The original really gives many,many ideas about how to combine the patterns into various vignettes that are fresh. The pattern book gives you each design separately, without the combined looks in the original book. Personally, I use them both together. I've gotten huge compliments on the shirts I have done with these book, and I recommend them highly. If this review helped you, please click "YES" below. this is a full price paid review.

This is a really useful book. Doodle Stitching Transfer Pack I have the initial book and disc of the same name Doodle Stitching: The Motif Collection: 400+ Easy Embroidery Designs . I love the designs so much that I was thrilled when this companion book came out. It is filled with the same designs as the original Doodle Stitching Book, however those you had to print, trace and transfer using parchment or another method involving several steps. This transfer pack book is much more practical and time-saving as it allows you to just cut the images out and iron them directly onto your fabric. They can be used multiple times and there is a nice big pocket in the back for storing the cut-outs once they have been used. I have been using this book for about six months now and coudn't be happier with it. Many of the transfers I have used in excess of five times now, and they are still going strong. The designs are nice and big and there are certainly plenty to choose from. This is one of my favorite books to use for embroidering flour sack towels as gifts. With so many different categories of designs I am able to find something that suits just about everyone. If you have any questions leave them in the comments and I will get back to you.

I purchased this book of embroidery designs after buying one of the author's other design books. Her designs are very cute and the transfers are very easy to use and leave a really clear outline to follow. She even includes a pocket to store the designs once you remove them from the book...very convenient!

I really really cannot draw, and as trying embroidery for the first time i thought that i would need some help to with designs and with ideas on what to do. Doodle stitching seemed like a fun way to discover new stitches and try them out, before committing to larger design pieces. This book has so many options, with pictures grouped together in themes. I have a four year old niece, who did mistake this as a colouring in book, so best kept away from children. Thankfully as the designs are made in a clear black outline i was able to trace her favourite pictures onto paper with ease, which she later coloured in and i embroidered. This had made a lovely gift for her, as she feels that we did this together (which we did). Some of the designs are pretty florals and mandalas, abstract tree's etc. others are cute animals, mythical creatures and seasonal pages will be fantastic for making into cards. I have not used the potenital to iron on the designs, as i have cheaper fabric (still learning) i was able to trace through the fabric using a fabric pen with ease. I am saving the iron feature for when i have thicker better quality fabric, and not less likely to make huge errors (being cautious as very new to this). This book is great fun, with tons of ideas and has helped me get hooked onto embroidery. The spiral bind assists with laying the book flat, which makes it easier to trace items too. I am very happy with this book, which i will no doubt continue to find uses for. I also feel that this would make a great gift, for someone looking into a new hobby.

I love embroidery, but don't always find the time for it. When I do, the painstaking process of transferring a design from a book to tracing paper/carbon paper and then the cloth was the most time-consuming. This book makes it a matter of seconds. The transfer process is easy, and the design appears on the cloth very clearly. Love it. The designs are lovely too. Wish there were pics of completed projects in the book though - would help newbie embroiders who don't know how to use colour schemes etc

Ho preso questo libro perché mi piacevano i disegni sulla copertina.... Ma sfogliandolo mi si è aperto un mondo! È bellissimo! I disegni spaziano tanti temi diversi, sono curati e semplici nello stesso tempo. Ma soprattutto sono molto artistici... Perfetti per me che amo ricamare questo genere. Ottimo acquisto

Perfecto! Tiene muy lindos diseños

It's perfect! I love embroidering, but it can be hard to come up with an idea and draw it on the fabric, this solves both of those problems!
