5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful, but charts are hard to read, April 27, 1999
By A Customer
This book has some of the most beautiful designs for needlepoint that I have yet run across. The only problem is that the graphs are color coded, (as opposed to symbol coded), and since there are so many colors in a lot of the designs, they are pretty hard to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ehrman Complete Needlepoint Book, May 10, 2001
By "esherril" (Houston, Texas USA) - See all my reviews
This book should be retitled The Ehrman Complete Needlepoint Book. I have been a fan of Hugh Ehrman's kits for over 15 years and this book features all of my favorite patterns as well as instructions on finishing cushions and wall hangings. The artists use of colours are incredible compared to other needlepoints out there. These are truly works of art rather than simple crafts!

When will his next book appear? I and many of his devoted fans wait with baited breath for a new book.

5.0 out of 5 stars These needlepoint charts are perfection, October 20, 2007
If you are into classic needlepoint then this is the book for you. There is a wide variety of designs, over 30, so there is something for everyone. Themes range from The Sea, Florals, both old and modern to Misc designs. I get them enlarged and the colours are clear and the patterns concise. The same type of kits would sell well over $200.
