Another fine June McKnight needlepoint book, this one full of ideas, stitches and patterns for needlepoint borders. The chapters include: Regular Count Borders 55 pages No Count Borders 23 pages Corners and Medallions 10 pages Whimsies 8 pages I think the instruction on corners will be quite useful, I know I have troubles with that, myself, sometimes. Needlepoint Borders is a small (5.5 X 5 inches) paper bound book with a metal spiral binding. There is a clear plastic overpage on the cover t...
Finally, June McKNight has re-designed the cover of this excellent book. It was almost impossible to read, white on yellow and drove me (and others) crazy (not too long a trip for me). The new deign is very good, readable and striking. Thanks June. Another of June McKnight's wonderful spiral bound needlepoint stitch books. This book focuses on stitches she considers "Architectural" . it is difficult for me to describe what she means by this. There are so many stitches here. I find that I tur...
I think these books by June McKnight are terrific. She is a great Needlepoint Teacher and her books explain & show you exactly what she intends to, no muss, no fuss.
Still, I have to take exception to her title "The Best Bargello Book". It is, indeed a very good, even a excellent Bargello Book, but the best? All my carping aside. This is larger then the usual June McKnight books but in the same basic format. She begins at the beginning, with the canvas, goes to threads, the first stitch. She...
I had not seen this June McKnight book before. it is copyrighted 1993 but perhaps not always available. It is, like the other June McKNight needlepoint books, and useful and very portable book. As I have done with some of the other June McKnight books, I think listing the chapters will give you a good idea of the contents. FOLIAGE 30 PAGES FLOWERS 36 PAGES GARDEN STRUCTURES 9 PAGES ANIMALS 10 PAGES INDEX OF TREES & FLOWERS The book is full of wonderful flower and foliage stitches, all easy to...
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...
The companion book to June McKnight's Decorative Backgrounds for Needlepoint copyrighted in 1992. This More Backgrounds book is copyrighted 2001. Some of the background stitches shown in this book take up 2 pages, 1 page for instruction and the 2nd for the graph. Others take just one page so it is difficult to get a stitch count for this book. From the index I estimate there are 64 stitches in this book. All are graphed and described with Ms McKnight's usual skill and clarity. This is a smal...
The cover of this newest edition of Needlepoint Secrets does not have the fancy, sparkly embellishment that the previous edition did but otherwise the book is exactly the same.
I used the new picture from June's Web Site, with my apologies to June for my laziness. At first I thought maybe Secrets was a revision of June's excellent book Needlepoint Wisdom, which is no longer available, but June assures me it is not. She told me this is a whole new book with all the things she has learned over...
This handy little book is another in June McKnigh's series of Needlepoint and Bargello Needlepoint books. The books are small with big spiral bindings. They are the perfect size to carry in your needlepoint tote bag and I love spiral bounds books, they lay flat when open. The subtitle for this book is "The Ten Commandments of Background Stitching" "Rules to help in the selection of the perfect background". I think that pretty much says it all. This is, as I have noted, a small paperbound book...
