NewNeedlepoint.com has been open almost 2 years now. There have been many changes as I find my “spot” in the on-line needlepoint community.

NewNeedlepoint.com specializes in books, both new and used books. The needlepoint and Bargello Needlepoint book categories are extensive. Many of the books here are rare, some are quite rare and all have reviews I have written.

There are pictures of all the books. I find a picture of the cover sometimes tells you more about a book then any review can.

All the used/rare books have pictures of the book cover or dust jacket plus a picture of the inside pages so you can see the condition of the books for yourself.

I know it is a given in the used book market that you keep the dust jacket, no matter the condition but I find many good or very good condition books inside terrible and dirty dust jackets. In that case I remove them, no matter what the market “says”.

NewNeedlepoint.com is currently expanding it’s collection of other Needlework books. Included are Cross-Stitch, Glorafilia, Ribbon Stitching, Embroidery, Punchneedle, Bead Stitching, Whitework, Blackwork, Beginner Needlepoint and more.

I will continue to sell selected needlepoint canvases & kits including the work of Patt & Lee Designs, Laurel Burch and more. The Patt & Lee collection of Scrap Thread canvases are a wonderful way to use your extra yarn and thread stash.

The items in the small tools category is also carefully chosen. I only sell tools I have used myself.

NewNeedlepoint.com continues to change while I work to make it as good as it can be. I hope you like what you see.

This Beth Russell book is a rare and hard-to-find book. This one is in very good despite being a former library book. It has all the "library book' markings, it is from The Tippecanoe County Public Library in Layfayette, Indiana.

Beth Russell's books are always lovely, very well done with all color pictures and graphs.

There is a extensive introduction with a very beautifully staged picture of Ms. Russell working. Then the book discusses the Arts & Crafts Movement.

There are 16 projects, all with pictures, complete and detailed graphs, color use guides with the colors numbers for DMC Floss, Appleton Wool, Paternayan Wool, as used in the project.

The book then has a chapter on Basic Techniques, Where To Buy Kits and Materials, Places to Visit and a Bibliography.

The Places to Visit list is very interesting. One list is places in the USA and the much longer list is places in the UK.

Beth Russell's Traditional Needlepoint is a hardbound book, it was published in 1992 by Reader's Digest Association.

This is a former library book, it is in good condition outside. There are marks from the tape they used to hold the plastic cover on to the book with on the hard cover.

The dust jacket is good, just a bit bent at the edges. The plastic overjacket protected it.

There is the library card holder on the front inside cover page with a bar code inventory stitcker next to it.

The inside pages are very good and the spine is tight.
