The Pattern Library: Needlepoint Edited by Amy Carroll NewNeedlepoint

NewNeedlepoint.com is a labor of love. I began my web store with the idea that I would build the kind of Needlepoint Web Store where I would like to shop.
I love color and I admire good design. My goal is to sell the best Needlepoint Designs, Books and Accessories I can.
I have a extensive selection of wonderful Hand Painted Needlepoint Canvases & Kits by some of today’s fine Needlepoint Designers including Danji Design, Laurel Burch, Eileen Best and many more.
NewNeedlepoint.com has a large collection of Needlepoint & Bargello Needlepoint Books. Most of the books are Hard-To-Find used books, some are quite Rare. Some of the books are maybe not so rare but are classic Needlepoint or Bargello Needlepoint Design or Reference Books.
I have picked out the best condition Books I could find, which is not as easy as you might think.
NewNeedlepoint has two new categories: NEW Needlepoint Books & NEW Bargello Books. These are direct from the publisher or distributor current Needlepoint or Bargello Needlepoint titles by some of today's well-known authors.
There are more to come.
NewNeedlepoint.com specializes in Beginner & Novice Needlepoint Kits and Books. The beginner level Needlepoint Kits are scattered everywhere in my listings as well as having their own category.
The Beginner Books do not…yet…have their own category.
NewNeedlepoint.com has an extensive selection of the excellent Patt & Lee Glicee’ Needlepoint Designs. They are all available as canvas alone plus most are also for sale assembled as a kit.
There is also my small Needlepoint Tools Category. I don’t sell anything I am not familiar with, no Drop Ship here. This is where you will find Mighty Bright lamps, Laying tools, quality Gingher Scissors, DMC or Kreinik Color Cards and more.
NewNeedlepoint.com continues to change as I work to make it as good as it can be. I hope you like what you see.

The Pattern Library Needlepoint Edited by Amy Carrroll

Price: $12.00

* Quantity:

* = Required Field

I was not going to list this small book, I assumed it was another needlepoint stitch book but I was wrong.

This is a reference book of Needlepoint Patterns. They are 85 patterns you can use as motifs or as repeating patterns or backgrounds. They are very well done, all the pictures are in color, with graphs and complete directions.

There is a large section of Bargello patterns, as well.

The chapters are:
Basic Techniques
Straight Stitches
Diagonal Stitches
Crossed Stitches
Star Stitches
Looped Stitches
Color Stitch Patterns
Bargello Patterns
Borders
Mitered Corners
and an index

Remember, these are patterns using this type of stitch, not just the stitches.

Published by Ballentine Books in 1981 The Pattern Library is s amll glossy cover paperbound book. It is the perfect size to slip into your needlepoint tote bag.

This book is in good condition. I appears to have been damp (not wet) once and the pages dried somewhat "wavy". There is also some edge yellowing of the pages and the cover. It is in better condition than not (if you know what I mean)
