Emmy Schoonbeek, of The Netherlands, is the fantastic embroiderer who has created a fiber book from her TAST challenge of 2008. I've created a video of this wonderful art book. Her hand stitching is just amazing. Along with the fiber TAST book, Emmy sent Garden and Overvloed to be displayed at CYBER FYBER.

The garden quilt is amazing! The hours and hours and hours Emmy stitched is inspiring. The black and white piece is also wonderful. Thank you for sharing your art Emmy!

What an inspiration that Garden piece is. I could spend hours just staring at the stitching. Beautiful piece.
