Untamed Thread Book

We are delighted to showcase this wonderful book from a fantastic local author!

This is the story of NZ creative Fleur Wood's journey from corporate world to creative life. With beautiful imagery showcasing Fleur's enchanting stitch work and the surrounding landscape, this is a guide that invites you into her rural NZ art studio. Her practice is as untamed as the landscape that inspires her.

Chapters include Fleurs backstory, inspiration she takes from nature to create her art, to practical chapters showcasing her favourite stitches, advice on threads, needles and fabrics. This book wraps you in a warm blanket of nostalgia and inspires you to travel down your own creative path.

Celebrated globally, Fleur's work has been exhibited in New York, Australia and NZ. 

"Creating this book with my incredible publisher Koa Press was such an incredible experience and I hope you really enjoy what the book has to offer. My wish is that it will share with you not only my love for all things colour, texture, flora and textile but also some inspiration and prompts for you to bring more creativity into your days. Most of all, through it’s comforting companionship I hope it gives you a sense of your own creative soul and invites you closer to making your own creative breakthroughs"
