This is a great book for a beginner - I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to learn the embroidery stitches - from basic to complex. It will also be a handy reference in the future when I am more accomplished at embroidery because it includes a history of the stitch and what it is used for typically. It has lots of pictures and guides to how the stitch should look - as well as getting started tips. Wonderful, colorful book. Even has projects!

I have embroidered all my life and this book is the one that I keep with my embroidery as a reference. No matter how long you have done embroidery you can not remember all the stitches. The stitch diagrams are easily understood and can be followed with ease. I also use it for inspiration when I am designing a piece> I have actually done the samplers shown in the book and use them when I am teaching to show how a stitch would look. I would recomend this book to a beginning stitcher as well as an experienced one.

This is truly one of the best informational books I've seen. Very complete and easy to understand.

FOR EMBROIDERY LOVERS WHO WHATS TO KNOW EVERY DIFFERNT KIND OF STITCH
GET THIS BOOK YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE IT BY YOUR SIDE, WHEN YOUR DOING YOUR EMBROIDERY.

I am a new embroiderer and have no other embroidery books but I still love this book.

I love picking it up, reading it, the pictures.

There is a ton of information in here...it will take me a long time (if ever) to use it all. Examples of both traditional and modern projects.

The layout is beautiful, the front is beautiful...overall very very inspiring.

I am having a great time learning embroidery, planning my first project using this book. I love it.

This book has a lot of good pictures and projects to try. It has really helped me.

I have just started learning embroidery and been slowly collecting books. To my surprise, this has turned out to be my favorite! It has very nice pictures, good descriptions, and covers tons of stitches. Even though this book is not being printed anymore, it is a wonderful addition to a craft lovers book collection.

I am sorry that I cannot review this book yet. I have had it sent to my son's place in the U.S. I live in Australia. I am sure that all is well. I am going to visit them next month so then I will get to view this book.
