Glorious Needlepoint by Kaffe Fassett on NewNeedlepoint.com

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.

First Edition Glorious Needlepoint by Kaffe Fassett

* = Required Field

This is a First Edition of Kaffe Fassett's landmark book on Needlepoint. it was published in 1987 by Clarkson N. Potter/Publishers and distributed by Crown Publishers in New York.

I was interested in Needlepoint when I bought my copy of this book, back when it was first published. I knew Kaffe Fassett's name. My mother is a knitter and I had bought her his previous book Glorious Knits. It is an awesome book.

I think this book, more than any other, got me started doing Needlepoint. While the book does have graphs and instructions for most of the designs shown, it is essentially a beautiful picture book. To me, anyway.

Kaffe Fasset's design ability and color use are unmatched. His work is wonderfully displayed, as well. This is, to overwork the word, a beautiful book. It is a large "coffee table" size.

This is a First Edition of this book, as stated on the back of the title page. The book is in very good condition, not perfect but very good. The dust jacket is a bit bent and worn at the top and the bottom. Other than that, the book is very good inside & out.
