These are gorgeous letters to use as a lavish alphabet or as monograms. The Victorians did everything a little (or a lot) over the top and these fit that description. By the noted Victorian-era designer Karl Klimsch who excelled in the use of clean lines, shading and 3 dimensional effects. His 2 letter monograms were original published in Germany in 1869.These handsome monograms are easily re-produced, the size is easily changed with a copier or scanner. They are all copy-right free. This is...

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...

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.

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...
Trish Burr's stitchery books mostly call themselves Embroidery books but as I and many needlepointers already know, they are wonderful and very useful needlepoint books as well.
Very little shown in any of Ms. Burr's books is not applicable to needlepoint and in fact, I list a lot of them here alreadfy including:
Needle Painting Embroidery & Redoute's Finest Flowers. Her book Long & Short Stitch Embroidery is maybe the best book on Long & Short Stitch which is useful in many designs and feat...

Tracy Franklin is also a contributor to The Royal School Of Needlework Embroidery Techniques book, which is also listed here in my RSN Book category. Although this book spec...
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 excellent book on Bead Embroidery, published in 2001 is now out-of-print but I found this new copy. Jane David is the author or several other books on beadwork including Decorative Wirework and A Beaders Reference.
The book teaches you 215 embroidery stitches, not all of them are suitable for needlepoint canvas however most of them are. The illustrations of each stitch are shown on open weave canvas, like needlepoint canvas.
Each stitch has a photograph and an illustration, The addi...
