I recommend every embroider have a copy of this book on their shelves as a reference guide for the many stitches available in embroidery.<br><b>Quilter's Review (Aug 2018) <p/></b>Defined here as a way of altering a surface with stitches, embroidery in all its richness and variety is presented in this alphabetically arranged guide to a wealth of stitches available to the needle crafter. Thread, needles, and fabric are the triumvirate of necessary materials required for all embroidery projects, and an introductory discussion of those factors is joined by commentary on transferring design onto fabric. Once these important preliminary issues are cleared, then the meat of the book is offered: the stitches themselves, from simple to complicated. The thing to realize about this book is that every stitch is afforded clear and detailed textual directions augmented by exquisitely clear photographs.<b><br>Booklist 2014<br></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Compiled by the expert team at Country Bumpkin, renowned Australian publishers of embroidery books and magazines.
