NewNeedlepoint.com just had it’s 3rd birthday. I am sometimes amazed that we made it this far. I keep making changes and tweaking my web store. I want it to be the best it can be.

NewNeedlepoint.com has 2 sections. There is my extensive collection of New Needlework books. I have expanded the books categories to cover other types of stitching in addition to Needlepoint.

There are knitting & crochet books, embroidery & cross-stitch books, color use & theory books and the catch-all misc. books category.

My Rare/Used Book titles are dictated by the books my customers want and the books that I can get, in reasonable condition. It is getting difficult to find decent, salable old books. Some of the Rare Books are getting quite hard to find.

I have also expanded the Rare/Used books categories to cover other types of Needlework.

I specialize in Bargello Needlepoint books although there aren’t that many of them out there, used or new.

The other side of NewNeedlepoint.com is the Canvases & Kits I sell. I stock mostly hand painted needlepoint designs by some of today’s great Needlepoint Designers. I have a special category for the gorgeous & colorful work of Laurel Burch.

I also have a good collection of Patt & Lee’s superior Glicee’ needlepoint designs including a whole section of Patt’s Scrap Threads collection. The perfect way to use all that extra stash we all have.

I assemble the kits myself, from the threads I love to stitch with. I use Anchor & DMC Perle Cotton Floss in sizes 3, 5 & 8. Also Kreinik Metallic Braid Thread in sizes 12 & 16.

I have a small Needlework Tool collection, all of it things I use and know work well.

I want to thank all my customers for 3 great years, so far. This coming year should be as interesting as the last 3 have been.

Mary Norden's Needlepoint: Fifty Folk Art Projects for the Home
Price: $22.00
* Quantity:  
* = Required Field
For some unknown (and probably odd) reason I am always put off by an author who puts their name before the title of the book. I think I have to suspend that inclination for this beautiful book.

The 50 Folk Art projects in this book are not to be confused with "Country". Folk Art and Country Design are different. Folk Art often has a strong graphic element, and there is often a touch of the many ethnic influences involved.

While some of these designs are flower based, most of them are graphic or combinations of design motifs.

The chapters are:
Hearts & Garlands
Home & Hearth
Lords & Ladies
Borders & Patterns.

Mary Norden's Needlepoint has complete directions for each design with a color key and a full color graph. Some of the designs are shown stitched it 2 or more colorways, I find that very interesting.

This is a large coffee table size hardcover book. Published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson in London, 1994. It has 160 pages.

I listed this book here just once, it sold right away and I have had a hard time replacing it.

Mary Norden's Needlepoint is in very good condition. The edges of the dust jacket are somewhat ragged. The book inside is very, very good. There is the slightest yellowing at the edges of the pages from age, otherwise perfect. The spine is tight.

Side note: The author's picture on the inside back dust jacket flap looks nothing like you would expect her to look. The "come hither" photo from the back of the book is unexpected but nice.
