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 the USA edition of another fine Batsford English Needlework book, Florentine Canvaswork. This American edition, published the same year, is the exact same book with a different title. Dorothy Phelan's wonderful book is divided into 2 distinct parts. The first part is a study of the history and characteristics of this needle art and a comprehensive guide to...
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. This is, of course, a rare book. It is getting harder to find more each time I sell one. 4-Way Bargello is a very advanced form of Bargello Needlepoint. The patter...
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 Needlepoint.
Margaret Boyles is a Master Teacher, her directions are concise and clear. her graphs are in full color and good size you don't have to peer at them with a magnifying glass. I always have trouble finding this book in good condition or even decent condition. Each time I replace thi...
I have not had a decent copy of this book to list here in a long time. I order it over and over, and the copies arrived, in tatters or full or foxing (which is a contagious virus that paper gets). So while the book is not rare, it is very hard-to-find in salable condition. This is a unique book, it is about using Bargello for borders. That's it and it is great. The book is full of charts and ideas. One of the best parts is that Bargello Borders deals with how to do those difficult corners an...
Subtitled This Illustrated Introduction to Bargello Will Help You Create Fabulous Pillows, Rugs, belts and Wall hangings with Canvas and Yarn Peri Wolfman is (or was) the owner of 2 Needlepoint stores. She has written this comprehensive Beginner's Guide to Bargello Needlepoint. The book includes many Bargello Stitches and the materials you ned. it begins with the basics. The chapters are: What Is Bargello Materials Basic Flame Stitch Correcting Mistakes Patchwork Sampler Bargello Patterns Geo...
This is not a basic book on Bargello. It is not for beginners. Bargello Plus has unusual ideas and very interesting original designs featuring Bargello stitchery. The Bargello pattern stitches are combined with other regular needlepoint stitches to create the overall designs. The graphs and the instructions are very clear and complete. There is a section of Bargello Patterns and a section on free-form Bargello. There are 2 sections of good full color pictures. The designs and the colors are st...
Florentine Embroidery is subtitled The Complete Guide to Working Florentine Stitches, From Choosing The Right Canvas To Blocking The Finished Embroidery with 50 Patterns to Stitch. (ok, I paraphrased a little)
The instructions are clear and comprehensive. Some of the motifs shown are similar to the ones most all these books have but a few are unique. I used this book to help teach myself Bargello Needlepoint and I found it a good teacher. I know there is quite a bit of confusion out there...
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't so silly a m...
Elsa Williams is one of the better known needlework designers. Her designs and products include needlepoint, embroidery, crewel work, cross stitch and more. The needlework products bearing her name are too numerous to mention.
This is considered an iconic needlepoint book. This is Elsa William's Bargello book. It is one of the most important of the early books on Bargello needlepoint. It is another fine Van Nostrand Reinhold book, published in 1967. It is hard cover and has 64 pages. Elsa Wil...
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 to fi...
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 amp; inches. Florentine Canvaswork is a wonderful book. There has...
