Pop-up embroidery : a beginner's guide to modern raised stitches / by Denn, Ashley,author.;
"A collection of playful, contemporary designs that introduces a new generation of needlecrafters to the charms of raised embroidery. Through step-by-step guides, Ashley Denn takes you on a pop-up journey, introducing you to the art of raised embroidery. Your adventure through Pop-up embroidery begins with a collection of patterns using one to two raised stitches, then moves on to other collections of patterns using multiple raised stitches in combination with one raised technique. The book concludes with three patterns using an array of already-practiced raised stitches and techniques to create complete three-dimensional scenes. Denn's thoughtful progression allows readers to choose whether they want to move steadily through the book from beginning to end or to flip through and take their pick of which projects to complete first. Including more than 30 raised embroidery stitches and techniques -- and with ways to apply them in 20 guided in-hoop embroidery projects -- Pop-up embroidery is an accessible guidebook crafted by Denn, a teacher who makes learning this craft a delightful experience. Additionally, she identifies the materials needed to be successful with each project and includes a directory of raised stitches and techniques; iron-on transfer sheets for easy pattern transfer are also included. This is truly a book for all skill levels, whether you're new to the craft or simply new to elevated stitches"--

When no one is watching : [Book Club Set] / by Cole, Alyssa,author.;
"Sydney Green is Brooklyn born and raised, but her beloved neighborhood seems to change every time she blinks. Condos are sprouting like weeds, FOR SALE signs are popping up overnight, and the neighbors she's known all her life are disappearing. To hold onto her community's past and present, Sydney channels her frustration into a walking tour and finds an unlikely and unwanted assistant in one of the new arrivals to the block--her neighbor Theo. But Sydney and Theo's deep dive into history quickly becomes a dizzying descent into paranoia and fear. Their neighbors may not have moved to the suburbs after all, and the push to revitalize the community may be more deadly than advertised. When does coincidence become conspiracy? Where do people go when gentrification pushes them out? Can Sydney and Theo trust each other--or themselves--long enough to find out before they too disappear?"--

Romantic comedy [text (large print)] : a novel / by Sittenfeld, Curtis,author.;
"Sally Milz is a sketch writer for The Night Owls, the late night live comedy show that airs each Saturday. With a couple of heartbreaks under her belt, she's long abandoned the search for love, settling instead for the occasional hook-up, career success, and a close relationship with her stepfather to round out a satisfying life. But when Sally's friend and fellow writer Danny Horst begins dating Annabel, a glamorous actress who guest-hosted the show, he joins the not-so-exclusive group of talented but average-looking and even dorky men at the show-and in society at large-who've gotten romantically involved with incredibly beautiful and accomplished women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch called the Danny Horst Rule, poking fun at this phenomenon while underscoring how unlikely it is that the reverse would ever happen for a woman. Enter Noah Brewster, a pop music sensation with a reputation for dating models, who signed on as both host and musical guest for this week's show. Dazzled by his charms, Sally hits it off with Noah instantly, and as they collaborate on one sketch after another, she begins to wonder if there might actually be sparks flying. But this isn't a romantic comedy-it's real life. And in real life, someone like him would never date someone like her ... right?"--
