Master the art of storytelling through stitch and create your own deeply personal embroidered treasures, with innovative multidisciplinary artist Aitor Saraiba.

Using treasured fabrics and personal memories interwoven with embroidery, mending and natural dyeing, discover 12 contemporary projects designed to unlock your creativity.


In this sumptuous, inspiring guide, Aitor Saraiba invites makers of all skill levels to transform fabrics and threads into deeply personal, meaningful objects. Drawing on his childhood in La Mancha, where sewing was a vital thread in the fabric of community life, Aitor combines the philosophy of zero waste with contemporary design.

This book is a toolkit for self-expression, designed to help you slow down, look inwards and craft unique and deeply meaningful items. Discover:
  • 12 stunning creative textile projects: follow step-by-step instructions to create scapulars, framed appliqué pieces, textile books and snippet rolls; for truly personal home décor, create warm, inviting pieces like mini throws, scatter cushions and a whimsical heart pincushion.
  • Guidance on sustainable mending: embrace the beauty of repair. Learn the Japanese art of Boro to help you customize existing clothes, and turn ‘wear and tear’ into artistic expression.
  • Natural dyeing made simple: a complete, approachable guide to creating your own dye palette using logwood, tea, onion and iron.
  • Includes essential resources: featuring a curated guide to sewing materials and Aitor’s favorite stitches, plus full-scale templates.
  • A stunning yet practical coffee-table book: the hardback format and sumptuous finish make this a perfect gift and a treasured collectible.
  • Your complete textile art workbook: an all-in-one resource covering mending, natural dyeing and creative embroidery – the perfect guide for holistic crafting for sewists of all abilities.

Embroider, Mend and Sew strips away the illusion of ‘perfect’ crafting, encouraging you to use whatever is at hand to create something beautiful and meaningful.

This book is a translation from the best-selling Spanish title, Cose, zurce y borda.
