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.

A beautiful, sumptuous book of needlepoint by Hugh Erhman, the founder of Erhman Tapestrys. Mr. Erhman began his career as an editor for Vogue Magazine. In 1978 he opened a shop in London, connected with the London Art Colleges, featuring the best of contemporary crafts. At the same time he and his brother launched Erhman Tapestry, which is still a popular source of fine needlepoint kits.

the subtitle of this book is :
"Flowers and Fruits in Needlepoint". he goes on to write that it is "an inspiring, glorious selection of more then 40 needlepoint creations from today's leading designers"

Some of the designs are graphed but not all. The pictures are gorgeous. They are all, even the graphs, in full color.

Fruits of the Earth Needlepoint features the work of:
Margaret Murton
Kaffe Fasset
Susan Skeen
Jill Gordon
Lillian Delevoryas
Ann Blockley
Deborah Kemball
Nancy Kimmins

I am only on page 53 of 115, so you get the idea. Candace Bahouth, Elian McCready et al are in this book.

Fruits of the Earth was published by Simon and Schuster in 1991. This hard cover book is in excellent condition. The only flaws are a very small tear in the dust jacket, at the top of the spine, which I have scotch taped and a very discreet, small store name sticker on the page before the title. The pages are fine and the spine is tight.
