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.

Another fine book from the A-Z Series of needleworks books. It is edited by Sue Gardner.

I am not familiar with Thread Painting, I assume it is similar to "NeedlePainting" but I do not know that for a fact yet. According to the back cover blurb for this book "The art of painting with a needle is one of the most revered form of embroidery, but one that is within reach of every embroiderer." It goes on to call the book "An essential guide for Needleworkers everywhere" Then again, what else is the back cover going to say?

In looking through this book I see there is a section of basics on suitable threads & fabrics. A section of stitches with a focus on the long & short stitch and shading. Long & Short stitch & shading are subjects I know I need to work on. Perhaps you do too.

There are 12 projects in the Animals & Birds chapter
14 in the Flowers & Fruit chapter

There are 20 pages of patterns. These are line drawn designs to be transferred to fabric (or canvas).

These designs and techniques can be easily adapted to Needlepoint or used as discussed in this book. This does seem to be a comprehensive book. And yes, Thread Painting is very much like NeedlePainting. This is a very nice book.

A-Z of Thread Painting is a brand new book published by Inspiration Press in Australia in 2005. It is a glossy heavy paperbound book with a spiral binding hidden inside the cover of the book. It has 128 pages. ISBN #0-9750920-4-9

Selling New Books is very different from selling my used, hard-to-find or rare books. New books have a set retail price and I have to compete in the “marketplace”.

NewNeedlepoint.com will be charging the full retail price for these fine new books but I will ship them for free. Please consider the Free Shipping as a Discount.
