With this fun collection of projects in field-guide format, stitch your favorite animal, bird, fish, and plant species based on the ecosystems you love or live in.

Organized according to seven North American ecosystems--desert, mountain, forest, waterways, prairie, ocean, and urban--the 52 beautifully accurate designs by naturalist Kemper include popular species (think bears, manatees, and river otters) and some that are less well known or are potentially threatened.

Beginner-level patterns coexist with intermediate and advanced patterns. Learn the materials, stitches (including the one-of-a-kind "fur stitch," which renders mammal fur beautifully!), and techniques. Measuring approximately 3 inches, the creatures are perfect to adorn any stitchable surface.

A denim jacket with a snappy alligator? A cap featuring a herring gull and ocher sea stars? A tote sporting a Gila monster? Or perhaps there's a shirt pocket calling for a badger. These designs bring nature anywhere and allow you to wear your favorite wildlife species sustainably.
