This review is from: Embroidered Textiles: Traditional Patterns from Five Continents with a Worldwide Guide to Identification (Paperback)
As a textile collector and as an individual interested in anthropology I found this book full of invaluable insights. A good, clear read, excellent pictures and wonderful research makes this book an excellent reference. If you aren't intensely interested in the history of cultures and their expression in textiles this is not the book for you. If you are interested in such things: I highly reccomend this book.

This is a good historical reference that ties in the symbolism and religious influences on embroidery. The pictures are wonderful!
