This is the one tool we should all have. It is much easier to use and more effective then using tweezers to pull threads or needles out of canvas or fabric.
Of course, tweezers are what has always been recommended but this is much better. The puller has some resistance (like cuticle snips have) and the blunt ends will not harm even the most delicate fabric.
Another Needlework Accessory that would make a terrific gift.
5.5 Inches long, made of stainless steel.
Recently I quckly sold out of my...
This is the first in the series of Glorafilia Needlepoint books, it was published in 1997. I was not sure, at first, what made Glorafilia Needlepoint different but after skimming these books I think it was the use of "special" stitches back when almost no one was using them plus mixing Long and Short Stitch with the traditional needlepoint Continental or Basketweave Stitches. At any rate, the effects are gorgeous. Each of the projects in the book has detailed instructions, color charts and a...
I know I have often mentioned Margaret Boyles' many excellent book on Bargello Needlepoint. As far as I know, this is Ms. Boyles only book on regular needlepoint. This is an interesting and very forward thinking book. When it was published, in 1974, few if any other needlepoint books mentioned Decorative Stitching. Needlepoint Stitchery discusses it, in depth, as well as putting 2 versions of the same design on it's cover. One is stitched in plain stitch and one is done in a variety of decorati...
Carol Belanger Grafton is a familiar name, she has edited several other books of this kind. I stopped counting at 13 titles, there were more. I carry some of her's fine compilations here in both my New Monogram and Alphabets category as well as several of her used books.When I saw this title I could not resist and I am glad I did not. This is truly a unique collection of Monograms and Alphabets. There are all different sizes and styles here but I want to show you a close up of just one of many...
Trish Burr is a well-known needlepoint teacher and author of the Long & Short Stitch book & DVD as well as numerous other needlework books including one of my favorites, Redoute's Finest Flowers. Needle Painting for Embroidery is subtitled " Fresh Ideas For Beginners" This book does begin with easier lessons, I find it goes way beyong beginners, the instructions are given in levels going from level one to level 3 which is more challenging. it is a very good Needlepainting book Essentially...
Needlepoint Bargello is another wonderful Bargello and 4-way Bargello Book by Dorothy Kaestner. This book has 25 entirely new 4-Way Bargello Patterns. Each has a chart and a full color picture of the finished piece. The book also includes 32 "regular" Bargello designs as well as something unusual.
All this time I have been selling this book and I have sold many copies of it, I thought the book's name was Bargello Needlepoint. It isn't. The title is Needlepoint Bargello. If it wasn't so silly a...
Interesting, some of the newest Bead Stitching books are from Japan with Japanese authors. I wonder if beading on fabric (or canvas) is very popular there?
There are 2 volumes to this book you Yasuko Endo. This one is Bead Embroidery Stitch Samples-Stitch Samples.
This book shows how to add Beads to all sorts of stitches. It's main theme is Embroidery but many, if not most, of these techniques & stitches can be easily adapted to Needlepoint.
Bead Embroidery Stitch Samples is just what is says...
I was not sure when I ordered this book what it would be. The british refer to Needlepoint as Canvaswork or Canvas Embroidery. Still, it is a Royal School of Needlework book so I knew it had to be something good. As soon as I saw the cover I knew I had a great Needlepoint book. The cover picture is a nicely stitched NP windmill with an amazing Bargello stitch sky, shading from blue to light blue, through several shades. To quote from the back cover "The Royal School of Needlework teaches hand...
Jane Nicholas is an authority in Stumpwork, she is the author of 8 books on Stumpwork stitchery including The Complete Book of Stumpwork.
This is a Milner Craft Series book, one of Sally Milner Publishing's excdellent stitchery books from Australia.
In the introduction to this handsome book Jane Nicholas says her inspiration for this book was her fascination with medieval illuminated books such as The Book Of Hours. She was driven to embroider them and used the techniques of stumpwork to enh...
This book is published in France and in the French language but that does not really effect the designs and information. There is almost no text, in any langauge other then the preface and the 2 page Conseils Techniques which means Examples Of Use.
There are many nature and plant based needlepoint design books, flowers, flora, trees & shrubs, landscape etc. but I know of no other book dedicated to vegetables.
This is an extraordinary book, each desgn has 6 pages. The first page is a stitched e...
Joen Wolfram is a name I recognize. She is also the creator of the very useful Ultimate 3-in-1 Color Tool that I have sold here for man years now.
There is a line of words printed at the top of the cover, I would not call it a subtitle but they dogive you an idera of the book
Depth-Iridescence-Lumonsity-Luster-Opalescence-Transparency.
Quoting and very slightly paraphrasing from the back cover
"Using Nature as her guide, author Joen Wolfram unlocks the mysteries of color, relating color th...
This wonderful book has become the one book that I sell more of then anything else, and with good reason. I first heard about this book at the same place I learn so much about Needlepoint & new needlework things (be they books or tools or designs or stitches). Of course I mean Jane's Chilly Hollow Needlepoint Adventure Blog. Jane mentioned a new needlework finishing book. Since there are very few other currently published books on Needlepoint Finishing and one increasingly rare older book on th...
