5.0 out of 5 stars having problems getting the yarn?, December 18, 2001
By C. Gochicoa "corieg" (Dryden, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For those of you who want to stitch up these wonderful designs, you should be aware that the yarn used is from a UK company called Paterna. They also sell tapestry wool in the US under the name Paternayan. All of the numbers that do not start with a D are accurate, however the numbers that start with a D are only available from the UK version of the company. You will need to either substitute for them or order the yarn directly from the UK.

By the way, if you have any problems, Jill Gordon is wonderful about answering e-mails. She seems to be a very nice woman...

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing designs with breathtaking color!, December 17, 2001
By C. Gochicoa "corieg" (Dryden, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jill Gordon has clearly surpassed her first book with this one... And in contrast to the first book, she has included charts for all designs- hooray!!! Another gripe people had about her first book was that she did not include amounts of yarn, however she does in this book. Another improvement over the first book is that the charts are in color and larger, which makes them much easier to follow.

Needlepoint at the level takes concentration (no bland backgrounds here that are filled in with a single color), a wide range of yarn colors, and a goodly bit of time. In my experience, however it is well worth it. The comments that I get from friends who see the completed needlepoint are all overwhelmingly positive.

There is wide range of nature inspired designs in this book. Some are tropical, others are from the savana, others are from formal gardens, all are beautiful. If I only had the time, I would do about 80% of them for my house, and I would do the others for people I love.
