RARE Bargello Needlepoint Books

Both these excellent needlepoint pattern books are rare, both edition book 1 and book 2 together is unheard of. It took me a long time to get both these books, from different sources but I did it (I am a stubborn old broad, said with admiration for myself, lol).There are many, many stitch books. There are some pattern books but not as many. This is done with Marnie's skill and clarity.Marnie begins book 1 with a one page tutorial on Counting On The Diagonal. Then she goes right in...
I know I have often mentioned Margaret Boyles' many excellent book on Bargello Needlepoint. As far as I know, this is Ms. Boyles only book on regular needlepoint. This is an interesting and very forward thinking book. When it was published, in 1974, few if any other needlepoint books mentioned Decorative Stitching. Needlepoint Stitchery discusses it, in depth, as well as putting 2 versions of the same design on it's cover. One is stitched in plain stitch and one is done in a variety of...
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...
There are so many things I love about this book. I love the unique idea, the forms and colors used and the author's name "Gigs". On the back over is her picture, she is a good looking blonde. I imagined "Gigs" would have been more unusual looking but you never know, do you?
This book was published by Charles Scribner's Sons in 1977. I think it may be unique in it's subject. I think it is terrific. Since I first found it and began to sell copiues here it has become increasingly rare and hard...
This is another of the Margaret Boyles Bargello books I used to teach myself how to do Bargello Needlepoint. The subtitle is: A Collection of Original Designs and it is but it is also a Bargello reference book.
Margaret Boyles' Bargello Workbook takes you through all the stages of beginning Needlepoint Bargello. Each pattern has a full-color close up picture as well as an easy to follow graph. Even the graphs are full color, showing exactly where each stitch and each color goes. In the f...
Bargello: An Explosion in Color has exploded in price, again. This has happened several times to this book and to a few others, as well. To replace this book just cost me more than I was charging for it. I apologize for the price increase, this is common in the world of rare books.If you have read many of the used book listings here you know I taught myself Needlepoint and Bargello Needlepoint from books. This is the #1 book that taught me to stitch, and stitch correctly, Bargello Ne...
Dorothy Kaestner's wonderful book, 4 Way Bargello. I have a copy of this book myself and have sold so many here I now buy them in multiples, not 1 at a time. Although they are getting harder to find, or to find in a reasonable condition. I recently ordered 2 and both arrived full of foxing. Not good. Needless to say, I got a refund. I tried again. This book has become expensive and harder to find in Very Good condition. 4-Way Bargello is a very advanced form of Bargello Needlepoin...
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...
This wonderful book is both hard-to-find and rare. Each time I look for it, the price has gone up (and up) Dorothy Kaestner's Bargello Antics features 4 Way Bargello, and Mrs. Kaestner knows her stuff. Her designs are wonderful, her color use terrific. Every design is shown in full color in the color picture section of the book, taken by George F. Kaestner, who I assume is her husband. Bargello Antics is mostly about 4-way Bargello. 4 Way Bargello can be difficult to do (I have not manage...

When I first ordered this, I assumed it was a book of varied needlepoint stitches. I was surprised when it arrived. The subtitle for this books is:
101 Exciting Designs in Bargello, Quickpoint, Grospoint, and other repeat patterns. Interesting combination, not just the usual. This book is" Lisabeth Perrone's own workbook", she shares the designs, colors and technique of an expert stitcher" (from the dust jacket). Every pattern is shown in a full color photograph, a B & W or color photo...
Needlepoint Bargello is another wonderful Bargello and 4-way Bargello Book by Dorothy Kaestner. This book has 25 entirely new 4-Way Bargello Patterns. Each has a chart and a full color picture of the finished piece. The book also includes 32 "regular" Bargello designs as well as something unusual.
All this time I have been selling this book and I have sold many copies of it, I thought the book's name was Bargello Needlepoint. It isn't. The title is Needlepoint Bargello. If it wasn'...
