Round and Round the Garden: Nursery Rhymes and Songs

(2 customer reviews)

Hand-embroidered by Olivia Skelhorne-Gross

Round & Round the Garden celebrates nursery rhymes and songs that bring families together across cultures, while also displaying the magic of embroidery as an art form. Children and adults alike will delight in this carefully chosen collection of classics and new favourites brought to life with the colour and texture of embroidered images. The repetition of the simple patterned verses in Round & Round the Garden will stimulate children’s speech and communication skills, and the turning of each page will bring enchantment and joy.

“My embroidery journey began in 2015 when I picked up a needle and some floss on a whim and started to experiment. I learned quickly that it takes careful thought and attention with every stitch, knot, and colour to transform fabric and thread into a magical image.”

—Olivia Skelhorne-Gross
