\"LaWhile I was away in New Zealand, a parcel turned up on my doorstep. It was a little unexpected, though not totally. It contained copies of my first foreign language publication: “La Broderie Blanche Portugaise”.<\/p>\n

\nWhen I was in Paris at the beginning of the year, I met with the general manager of Les Editions de Saxe<\/a>, a large French craft book publisher. (You probably thought the Paris trip was a bit of a junket, but there was actually a business purpose to it!) They were interested in doing some French language editions of some of my books. On my return home, we made an agreement for the first one – Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimar\u00e3es<\/a>, under the new title of “La Broderie Blanche Portugaise”.<\/p>\n

Some time ago I sent them all the projects from the book, so that they could rephotograph them according to their house style. Let me tell you, it was pretty nerve-wracking sending my precious embroideries off to the other side of the world. Whenever I travel with any of my embroideries, they go in my cabin luggage, and never in my checked bags, such is my desire not to lose them! They have since been returned safely!<\/p>\n

Obviously they beavered away in France much quicker than I expected, because I certainly wasn’t expecting the book to already be done. But then, I suppose that while it takes me two years to write a book, a team of people translating and repackaging an existing book in a new format doesn’t take nearly so long!<\/p>\n

\"tea

Beautiful new photography of the projects, though I can’t say that I was thrilled about food being placed on my embroidery!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"stitch

Still the same step-by-step stitch instructions you love in my English language books<\/p><\/div>\n

“La Broderie Blanche Portugaise” by Yvette Stanton is now available in French, from Editions de Saxe<\/a> and in all the places you can normally purchase your favourite French embroidery books. <\/p>\n

If you have a particular request for any of my books to be translated into French, please let the editorial team at Editions de Saxe know. There are plans for them to do more.<\/p>\n

If you’re French or French-speaking, please enjoy my first book in your mother tongue. And if you have French friends who would be interested, please let them know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
