Helpful Book For Beginners!,
This review is from: Ribbon Embroidery With 178 Iron-On Transfers (Dover Iron-On Transfer Patterns) (Paperback)
For someone who has never done transfers, nor tried my hand at ribbon embroidary, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy this new craft was going to be. It's a perfect starter book, and she even has a flower for "X" in her ABC alphabet, which is Xeranthemum (Straw Flower). Money well spent for anyone who is looking for instructions on "how to" do ribbon embroidary. I am so glad this was my first book, she made it look easy and fun, and it was!

Big Disappointment,

This review is from: Ribbon Embroidery With 178 Iron-On Transfers (Dover Iron-On Transfer Patterns) (Paperback)
This book has only a few pages of text/instructions. Transfer designs are simplistic and none are illustrated. No pictures; all in black and white. I did give it two stars because it documents the basic embroidery stitches - although even they are not that clear. IMHO - not worth the shipping and handling.

This review is from: Ribbon Embroidery With 178 Iron-On Transfers (Dover Iron-On Transfer Patterns) (Paperback)
The book has got beautiful transfers, and so many that you will be busy for a long time. I just don't think it is for beginners.
