5.0 out of 5 stars So much to choose from!, May 30, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Designs and Patterns for Embroiderers and Craftspeople (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
I bought this book several days ago and was not disappointed. There is so much to choose from. I haven't been able to decide what to do first. The illustrations are basic line drawings. They are ready to go for tracing right out of the book or scanning into your computer to reduce wear and tear on the book. The front of the book displays a whole bunch of embroidery stitches and the directions on how to do them. The majority of the book illustrates hundreds of flowers in many different patterns and the rest consists of creatures, quilt squares and many beautiful intricate medallion patterns. The only thing that will hold you back is your own imagination. I recommend this book highly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Designs for stitchers, August 12, 2007
By 
This review is from: Designs and Patterns for Embroiderers and Craftspeople (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
Although I did not get the book to use for hand stitching designs, it would be great for the person who does embroidery by hand. The designs are classic and simple. Books like these are great for those of us that cannot draw great designs outselves. I got the book for inspiration for designs for machine embroidery. Some of the designs are quite large for machine embroidery but can be reduced easily enough for that purpose. It is a good book.
