Sandy's Finishing Touches is subtitled "A Step-By-Step Guide To Finishing Needlework. There is a lot of interest in Needlepoint Finishing right now. It seems to me there are less places to have good needlework finished then there used to be, as our LNS close, one by one. I used to have beautiful finishing done by a store near where I live, but the owners retired (go figure). The new store I took my finishing too did a miserable job, in fact ruining a large round petitpoint pillow I spe...
I am very impressed with this book, This comprehensive reference book has 53 Complete Fonts.
That means that each & every letter for 53 different alphabets are here. The sizes vary as do the style and look of the letters within the Celtic & Medieval. These fonts can be used for Embroidery, Cross-Stitch, Needlepoint or just about any lettering purpose. The author has selected and arranged these fonts, by type, from the SoloType Typographers Catalog. Quoted from the back cover : "Facing the...
A brand new completely updated and revised replacement for the RSN Book of Embroidery Techniques. This is a major addition of Needlework Knowledge, an extraordinary book.I know this is not strictly a needlepoint book but there are so many interesting techniques from this book that can be easily used and adapted to needlepoint. The RSN Book of Embroidery now includes Crewelwork, Blackwork, Whitework, Silk Shading, Stumpwork, Bead Embroidery, Canvaswork, and Goldwork. It does not replace th...
Last time I was able to list this book (which was several years ago) it was 4000 Flower & Plant Motifs. It sold almost immediately and I was not able to find any more copies.
This useful book was revised and published by Batsford, in the UK in 2011 and is now available again.
This time it has 5000 (yes, not a typo..5 thousand) Flower & Plant Motifs with all five thousand images on a free CD that comes with the book.
This is such an unusual book, it is indeed a designers sourcebook for flower...
I previously had this wonderful book listed here on NewNeedlepoint . Then one day when I was doing some basic maintenance on the web store site, I accidentally deleted it. Poof! As us usual for me, it has taken me forever to re-list it. Needlepoint for Chairs, Seats & Stools has 11 marvelous new patterns specially designed for a range of seats from a dining chair to a piano stool. Full charts, shade colors & stitch details for each piece. Detailed upholstery instructions to fit the needlep...
I have recently fallen in love with these gorgeous books on stitching flowers and gardens etc by Diana Lampe. I think there may be more in this series, besides this book and the beautiful book on stitching Pansies I have listed in New Books.
Since I first listed this book it has gone out of print. This is a hardbound used copy of it.This book is Embroidery From The Garden. It contains 2 amazing garden designs to stitch, each with many flowers. Each flower in the garden is unique. There is a O...
The Royal School of Needlework books are some of the best needlepoint & needlework books out there. This new one is GOLDWORK by Helen McCook. I like this, it is written on the back of this (and every) book. "The Royal School of Needlework teaches Hand Embroidery to the highest standard, developing techniques in new and innovative ways." 'I don't think it could be said better then that. Please take the use of *embroidery* as an all encompassing term. In the UK they often call needlepoint Canva...
The subtitle to this book is: Designs From Asia, Africa and The Americas.
Mary Norden is also the author of Mary Norden's Needlepoint, a interesting book with some *not seen everywhere* designs and ideas.
This book is her take on design from other cultures. To quote from the dust jacket flap
"From the rich and dazzling array of ethnic textiles from around the world Mary Norden has distilled this exotic collection of over 50 projects and ideas for your home."
"Twenty seven full color c...
I did an article for Needlepoint Now magazine's July/August 2014 issue on The Needlework Doctor. At the time I had around 25 copies, laboriously collected over the previous months.
The demand for this book was overwhelming. I sold my whole stock in just a few days, I even sold my own copy. When I tried to find more copies of this rare and important book I found that "the rare book market" had noticed what I was doing. The price for copies of this book skyrocketed. We are talking hundreds to...
I know, I have many of these Silk Ribbon stitching books here in my web store, but in my own defense, these books have gorgeous projects, beautiful stitching. If I could add another line of threads to NewNeedlepoint.com, it would be Silk Ribbons. I would love to kit with them, use them with other threads. Oh well...... Back to my subject. The flowers, made with Silk Ribbon, in this book are spectacular. There is quite a bit of technique here. The flowers have texture and depth. Many stand out...
B. Borssuck is a well-known needlepoint author who in the late 1970s and the early 1980s wrote some terrific Needlepoint Monogram books. One of them, 97 Needlepoint Alphabets, has become a rare & important book. Picture Your Dog in Needlework is something of a departure for B. Borssuck, here she is working with Ann Jackson. Quoting (and probably paraphrasing some) from the back cover: "A collection if 40 remarkably realistic portraits containing single studies, captivating head views, deligh...
The subtitle for this book is a long one "62 Original Patterns Inspired by or Adapted From a Range of Historical and Cultural Sources". This is a rare book, a very rare book. A very, very rare book. Well, that says it all. The book goes, briefly, into the history of Bargello and discusses the many names this kind of stitching is know by. That is always a confusion factor in Bargello Needlepoint, the many names. The author has adapted designs that are traditionally done in other art...
A beautiful book, as much for the pictures of the Ribbon Embroidery pieces stitched and how some of them are used. Satin and Silk Ribbon Embroidery is out-of-print and new copies are rare. This is one of the earlier books on Ribbon Stitching, which has become so popular in the last few years. The book begins with an overview on working with Silk Ribbon. Then it shows 5 pages of simple stitches for Silk Ribbon stitching with multiple stitches per page. Next is something I have not seen...
The subtitle to this interesting looking book is *A Creative Approach to Canvas Embroidery* The Liberated Canvas was published in Cape Town, South Africa so, of course, Canvas Embroidery means Needlepoint. This is a rare book, it is so rare I doubt many people even know of it. I was drawn by the title, so I ordered it...knowing nothing about it, as usual.
very hard to find, very rare and very expensive. I dislike this as much as you do. It was also expensive, sorry. After looking through...
I am selling all 3 volumes of Suzanne Howren & Beth Robertson's classic and very popular Stitches For Effect series books. Stitches For Effect More Stitches For Effect Even More Stitches For Effect These 3 volumes are together a complete and comprehensive Needlepoint Stitch Book. The authors. Suzanne Howren & Beth Robertson, together and individually are well-known for their many books on many facets of needlework. These 3 books are indeed a classic Needlepoint Reference. Each volume can sta...
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...
Father B's 21st Century Book of Stitches is now out-of-print.
