This review is from: Embroidery on Paper for Every Occasion (Perfect Paperback)
This book has 69 designs for every occasion. It has beautiful designs -- some are simple and some are complicated. Many of the designs are single line stem stitch, but the author also has a long stem stitch which outlines the design in a raised cordlike line. Some of the instructions are not clear but the book was first published in the Netherlands so perhaps it has to do with translation. I would only recommend this book to an experienced paper stitcher due to some of the vague descriptions.
