Needlepoint Stitches and Applications: Illustrated Guide for All
From the Publisher: Encyclopedia of Embroidery Stitches, Including Crewel
We're in Stitches at Dover! This book presents a comprehensive guide to the ten basic families of stitches: Straight, Back, Chain, Buttonhole or Blanket, Fly or Feather, Cross, Knots, Composite, Couched or Laid, and Woven. Each stitch family is further divided into six categories of progressive difficulty, starting with the basic stitch and developing increasingly sophisticated variations. These stages are as follows: Isolated (Basic stitch), Line, Angled, Stacked, Grouped, and Combined.
A sampler chart and a summary of the progression of stitches are included at the beginning of each family chapter, followed by individual pages for each stitch and its variations, with illustrations and step-by-step instructions, as well as notes on rhythm, uses, and helpful remarks. This logical and comprehensive guide provides a very useful resource for both beginners and experienced needleworkers.
