Marie Suarez embroiders the world of Sajou
I have always been an admirer of the embroidery designer Marie Suarez. She has always shown great enthusiasm and kindness towards us since the start of Maison Sajou, over 18 years ago..
When we had our Sajou Paris store, we were extremely lucky to have her give embroidery classes. You can imagine my joy when Marie told me of her project to bring out a book dedicated to the world of Sajou
Marie knows me well, and she is no stranger to Sajou products. With this book, she has succeeded in retaining her own inimitable style whilst remaining faithful to all that Sajou haberdashery represents. She did admit to me that sometimes she had to force herself to look outside of her usual range of colours. The result is breath-taking!
Everything is delicate, refined, beautiful and the whole collection is full of gaiety. In her introduction, Marie Suarez confirms “the colours are both shimmery and sparkly at the same time”.
Soft cover format 195 x 250 - 128. pages - Editions de Saxe - Only available in French.

A variety of stitches for the pleasure:
True to form, Marie proposes a variety of embroidery stitches which make her projects fun to stitch: “a mixture of stitches is great for all those who want to revisit the techniques but also for embroiderers who want to learn new skills”. And Marie Suarez concludes in her preface: “Don’t forget that embroidery is a craft which brings comfort and pleasure, while achieving a unique project”. A sentiment that I share wholeheartedly!

Embroidery boxes for the Marie Suarez book
We will be proposing embroidery boxes throughout the year containing all you will need to make one of the Marie Suarez projects.
The book is divided in two parts: a series of twelve panels illustrating each month of the year, and such objects as a sampler booklet, a cushion cover, bookmark, bags and pouches, a pin cushion etc…
We will start with a box to embroider the January panel, a delight with all the different stitches and two little charms representing the Sajou scissors and thread cards.
The following months will be available throughout the year.
We also have a box with the sampler booklet: it seems totally logical to start with this project, to help you identify the stitches which you may not know or have forgotten…
Other embroidery boxes for the other projects will be available during the coming months
If you have subscribed to our newsletter, you will be automatically informed when the boxes are posted online
You will also know straight away if you sign on to our Youtube channel, where the box contents are shown in video each time we bring out a new one.
