Ottoman Embroidery
This book is very heart warming. Story tells how the Ottoman peoples ventured from place to place taking only things of importance until they created their own empire. They taught themselves to embroidery using examples from their surroundings. Supper great book with color photos of their georgeous embroidery. Check out numerous books on Ottoman Embroidery.

Unfortunately it appears that the writer of beginners guide to ottoman embroidery is a beginner herself. The historical backgroumd does not cover the very caracteristic early red-blue embroidery, except for a couple of lines, and no pictures, the worked textiles seemes crude and at the same time you need to be an experienced embroiderer to be able to read the stich diagrams. I absolutely can not recommend this book either to beginners or to advanced embroiderers.
