You decide when a piece is finished, which gives you complete freedom to explore the textures that you're working with. Every single piece will be unique, and that's the beauty of it!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emily Botelho\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800920962\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800920965\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Search Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 9.40w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2024 pg. 17","brand":"Emily Botelho","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44410609893631,"sku":"9781800920965","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_76656f0f-2401-44b5-b16e-703cc77da084.jpg?v=1697536978","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/abstract-embroidery-emily-botelho-9781800920965","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
