I am a fan of Yukiko Ogura's stitchery books. They are well translated to English and the instructions and pictures are excellent.
This book was available new until recently, it no longer is howevcer this copy, except for some slight storagerippling on the spine (from being stored standing upright which is the right way to keep books) it is in perfect condition.
First up, ignore the word *Embroidery* in the title (or not, if the idea interests you). Most of the techniques here will work for n...
Ann Benson is a very well known teacher and writer on beading and Beadwork. Her book Beadpoint is still being published and is available here in my New Book category Beadwork.This is her basic, beginner's instruction manual and as someone who does not know much (or anything) about bead embroidery or bead stringing or anything, I was able to look at her book and judge is as, indeed, a beginner.She begins with the basics and then the book is formatted as a series of *How Do I* questions. It does c...
Subtitled: All the Stitches and Techniques of Silk Ribbon Work and Embroidery.
There are several fine beginner's books for Silk Ribbon stitching in my new books category but none of them is quite this basic. The book calls it's self a Primer and so it is. You do not need any previous stitching experience to use this book.
That does not mean it is simplistic but it does mean it is accessible to everyone. This would be a good book to start a young stitcher interested in Ribbonwork.

Lucinda Ganderton is a well-known name in Needlepoint books. She is the author or co-author of many books including the popular book, Stitch Sampler.
This book is subtitled Easy-To-Maker Accessories, Ornaments, Decorations amp; Stunning Objects Using Simple Techniques Showen in Over 850 Step-By-Step Photographs. The cover also says Over 100 Practical Projects. In paging through this book, I see that many of the projects are moire Crafty then pure needlework. There are needlework projects he...
This might be Di van Nierkerk's first book, published in 1995. If it's not, it is surely her first Ribbon Stitchery book. Di's books are wonderful but they seem to go out of print the week after I discover them. There are some titles of her's that I would love to see back in print (A Perfect World In Ribbon Embroidery and Stumpwork). Most of her out of print books are very expensive. I digress, as usual. While the focus here is embroidery there is nothing in this book that can't be easily adap...
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. It was also expensive, sorry. After looking through this book some more I went back to check the publication date. This is an unusual book...
I am a huge fan of the ribbonwork books by Yukiko Ogura. They are published in Japan, the copies I sell (both new amp; used) are all translated into English.
This is a rare book, there are not that many copies of this around. I found one used copy of this, in Japanese, selling for $287.00.
The book begins with staged, full color pictures of each project. They are impressive.
The pictures, diagrams and instructive pictures are all in fgull color, only the templates are in black and white...
The subtitle for this book is: Embellishing Clothing, Linens amp; Accessories. On the back of the dust jacket is a photograph of a black tee shirt decorated with small roses in various shades of pink on one shoulder. it is gorgeous. To quote the back cover blurb If you're searching for an easy way to add elegance or pizzazz to existing clothes, bags, hats and more, look no further - silk ribbon embroidery is the answer. Use a combination of simple stitches to make: a vest blooming with fuschia...
Ann Bensonn is the author of several other very good Bead Work books. Her specialty seems to be beading on fabric, which is just perfect for needlepoint embellishment.
The subtitle for this books is:New Needle Techniques amp; Original Designs.
The basic focus of this book is beaded jewelry however most of the techniques here can be used to embellish needlepoint. The instyructions are very clear and eay to follow. There are full color pictures of all finished projects and many illustrations...
This is so confusing. The Hardcover edition of this book is titled Decorative Needlepoint: Tapestry and Beadwork. The paperbound edition of this exact same book is called Tapestry and Beadwork. I have no idea why the difference? In skimming through it, I see no other changes. This is the paperbound edition. The subtitle is Canvaswork Projects for The Home. This is a lovely large book full of needlepoint projects along with hints how to use beadwork to embellish the designs. To quote the back...
