Ornamental Letters is a little different from most of the letter amp; mongram books currently in print. These are Illuminated Letters. Each letter is shown in a design featuring animals, plants, flowers, people, graphics amp; more. There are also some very stylized letter forms.
Quoting from the back cover: Since the late 4th century, the art of illuminating letters has gone through many fashions. Beautiful designs, ranging from abstract to naturalistic. have appeared on the pages of fan...

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 turn...
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...
The title of this book interested me. I recognized the name of the co-author, Beth Robertson. She is the co-author, with Suzanne Howren, of many very good needlepoint books including the 3 books in the Stitches For Effect series and Stitches To Go.
The book begins with a basic * Getting Started* page and then goes right into Knots.
There are 21 Knot Stitches or variations of Knot Stitches. Each suggested stitch comes with very clear Instructions and a line drawing showing you the exact process o...
Sandy's Finishing Touches is subtitled A Step-By-Step Guide To Finishing Needlework. I thought this might be a great book to have for sale here, since I know I know almost nothing about finishing off the needlepoint I stitch, beyond blocking it. 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...
This is a very fine tool to use for finding the exact colors and shades you want or need for your needlepoint projects. It is by Joen Wolfrom, a noted Colorist and author. Her book The Magical Effects of Color is available in here in my Rare Color and Color Theory Books category.
This tool packet measures 8 X 3.25 inches. It is printed on very high quality heavy glossy paper. The colors are bright and look true (to me). There are 816 Colors with CMYK, RGB and HEX formulas ( I have no idea wh...

With Illustrations by Kurt Loftus. Left Handed Stitching is a very much overlooked subject in needlework. I know of only one other book on the subject, the New York Times Book of Needlepoint for Left Handers and it is so rare it is difficult to find. It is long out of print. This is a more concise book, aimed at Embroiders and useful to Cross-Stitchers. There are instructions for 45 stitches using 96 drawings. In the forward the author, Sally Cowan who is also the author of Left Handed Sewing...
