Sandy's Finishing Touches is subtitled "A Step-By-Step Guide To Finishing Needlework. There is a lot of interest in Needlepoint Finishing right now. It seems to me there are less places to have good needlework finished then there used to be, as our LNS close, one by one. I used to have beautiful finishing done by a store near where I live, but the owners retired (go figure). The new store I took my finishing too did a miserable job, in fact ruining a large round petitpoint pillow I spe...
As many of you already know I am a fan and promoter of the excellent Needlepoint books by June McKnight. Even if I could not sell them here on NewNeedlepoint I would still recommend them. June has a new book out. The name, Colorful Backgrounds, says it all. The book is full of interesting and creative background stitches in glorious color. Each stitch has 2 pages, on the left is a color photograph of the stitch, stitched (how else could I have said that?). The right side is the graph, also in...
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...
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...
The subtitle of the new book from Carole Lake & Michael Boren is :String Art For Needlepoint. Volume 1: Amadeus-Jessica.
They are, of course, the authors of the very popular book Painted Canvas Embellishment: An Idea Book & the Desert Island Stitches series (there is a new book in that series as well).
Quoting from the Introduction:This is not a rulebook, rather, it is a guidebook to these fascinating stitches. The stitching techniques laid out in this book reflect the way we work these stitch...
This is the second volume of Carole H. Lake and Michael E. Boren's 2 volume series of books, Twisty Stitches. String Art for Needlepoint.
This book has the patterns (or designs) named Mistake Stitch through Walneto.
The first volume was stitches Amadeus through Jessica, so I suppose Volume 2 complete this series.
Carole Lake and Michael Boren are the authors of the very popular book, Painted Canvas Embellishment: An Idea Book and The Desert Island Stitches series (2 books in that series...

Ms. McKnight begins this book with a phrase we has posted as a sign in her studio. "Until further notice, celebrate everything". She goes on to say that some of the best needlepoint designers in the industry seem to have taken these words to heart and created wonderful holiday themed needlepoint canvases. This book is a collection of stitching ideas that evolved in her classroom. So many of her students wanted to stitch something very special for some very special occasion, day or holiday. An...
This book was a runaway hit at the 2014 Destination Dallas show. I sold my first copies in less than 2 weeks. I think this book might be a hit. This is the only book about this specific kind of stitching that I know of. The stitches in this collection are intended to be used as background stitches. There are (by my best count) 66 of them in this book. Open work stitch backgrounds are increasingly popular. Lynda has added some of her thoughts to this unusual book, and interesting mix. The...
Lynda Richardson's Original Stitches A La Carte is a very popular book. It is a unique mixture of Open-Work stitches and Lynda's own stories.
Stitches A La Carte Book 2: The Lost Stitches is a similar book, with all new stitches. In addition to Lynda's "stories" she has added recipes.
There are 64 new stitches in this book and 18 short essays or receipes.
Open-Work stitches have many uses in needlepoint. They are wonderful for backgrounds as well as adding texture or interest to other a...
