Maria A. Fritas is the author of several other books; The Art of Dimensional Embroidery and Apples to Zinnias, A Dimensional Embroidery Project Book.It is important to use her middle initial, A, in any search. There is another Maria Fritas, Maria E. Fritas who seems to be a wonderful cook, judging by the pictures.This is a single project book (or booklet). It is a border design of gorgeous flowers. The entire design picture wraps around from the front cover to the back. There is no oth...
This excellent book by June McKnight is one I have in my own collection. Books that really show you how to do this are relatively rare. I find shading and blending (well) hard to do, myself. The chapters are: Precise Thread Blending Random Thread Blending Tweeding, Twilling, Twiddling Shading with Dynamic Threads Decorative Stitches I think that covers it all, don't you? This is another of Ms. McKnights small, 5.5 X 5 inch, books with a plastic spiral binding and a paper cover protected by a...
Another excellent book from Sally Milner Publishing in Australia. Trish Burr says that White Work with Color differs slightly from her previous books. Burr is a prolific needlework designer, teacher and author. Her books include Color Confidence in Embroidery, Needle Painting Embroidery, Long and Short Stitch Embroidery, Redoute's Finest Flowers in Embroidery, and Miniature Needle Painting. There are more but these are the ones I have in stock (or try to).All of the designs and project...
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...
The full set of 5 books in the Designer's Guide to Color series published by Chronicle Books with introductions by James Stockton.The series has different authors. Book 1 & Book 2 do not list any authors. Book 3 is JeanneAllen, Book 4 & Book 4 are Ikuyoshi Shibukowa & Yumi Takahashi.Quoting from the last paragraph of the introduction to book 2: " This book is an invitation to look at color in new ways, to perceive color differently and moire accurately in experiment and to enjoy."Quoting f...
I have way too many copies of some of the wonderful out-of-print and rare Needlepoint books I stock. I have added 7 more titles to them, 4 of them Bargello books, and significantly lowered the price of all of the others.
Overstock New Books are 20% off, minimum, or more.
Take advantage of my acquisitive ways.
Ann Cox is also the author of the book A-Z of Silk Ribbon Flowers (which I just happen to also have in stock). It is an excellent book and has been very popular here. I first looked at t...
Di Van Niekerk is a very fine needlework teacher and author. She has made the areas of Ribbon Work and Stumpwork (often combined) her speciality. Embroidered Alphabets is ou-oprint now and has gotten very expensive & hard to find. I hate it that these excellent books go out-of-print so quickly. She is also the author of Cicely Mary Baker's Flower Faries in Ribbon Embroidery & Stumpwork, a really magical book as well as the wonderful Silk Roses book. This is her Embroidered Alphabets book a...
I can't say enough in praise of these wonderful Royal School of Needlework Essential Stitch Guides books. I have been waiting for this one for some months now. Bead Embroidery is not what you think of as *embroidery*. The cover shows a needlepoint piece stitched using beads & varied threads. The RSN, in the UK often refer to needlepoint as Canvas Embroidery. Everything in this book is adaptable to both. This is a "soup to nuts" guide, beginning with a short history of Bead Embroidery. It take...
This is one of my favorite Bargello Needlepoint reference books. I have a few that I refer to constantly and this is one of them.
This is another fine Batsford English Needlework book, published in the UK. The American version, published the same year in New York, is the same book but it is titled Traditional Bargello. Although this book was published in the UK, the measurements are given, though out the book, in both metric & inches. Florentine Canvaswork is a wonderful book. There has be...
Father B's 21st Century Book of Stitches is now out-of-print. It was the collection of the American Needlepoint Guild's (ANG) Stitch of the Month along with some of Father B's own stitches from 1982 until the last edition in 2000.This book is a sampler of the best of those stitches, chosen by Beth Howren, a very accomplished and well known needlepoint author.This small book (the perfect size to carry in your needlepoint tote bag) has 110 easy to read stitch diagrams complete with l...
The Lone Star Chapter of the American Needlepoint Guild (ANG) in Houston Texas has collected some of their favorite *go to* stitches in this handy sized small book. Perfect to take with you in your needlepoint tote (or totes as the case may be). Edited by Sue Ella Allen and John Waddell, copyright 2019.The members of the Lone Star Chapter submitted their favorite "hand charted stitches" (no photocopies) in the various categories. The editors chose what to use.The format of the book is simila...
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...
