A-Z of Embroidery Stitches: A Complete Manual for The Beginner Through to The Advanced Embroiderer (A-Z of Needlecraft)

This book is incredible!! People you have got to get this book if you want to learn your embroidery or if you’re already learn how oh my gosh it is so incredible not only does it show you how to use yarns but also incorporating ribbons. You will not go wrong Wrong # you’re going to love this book. It’s amazing thank you.

I was so excited when I received this book. The cover is very colorful and shows a few stitches that will be included inside. When I opened it I was even more excited because all the photos were very clear and precise. The written instructions were also clearly written and succinct. Care was taken to create this book by the design of the cover and rounded corners to the plentiful instructions on threads and needles to use. It was very extensive and a great help to me to learn this craft easily. The title is fitting "A-Z" of embroidery stitches. Very true description. There are extras included such as silk ribbon stitching and "needle weaving" which is more exotic and as far as I can remember I see a lot of use in Russia and Asiatic countries. I am excited to explore the book and begin learning more. This makes a great gift to give for both male/female. I think a good gift for a mother or grandmother to give the young crafty child/grandchild as an entry to arts and crafts. It's an important skill to learn with lots of structure.

Great book , just what I was looking for

I had been searching for this book for some time, as it is out of print. I gave it a four as the delivery took awhile, but it was coming from the UK, so I knew it would. This book is not spiral bound, so it is not quite as easy to use as the other volumes. Despite those detraction's it is a great beginners book of stitches. The step-by-step instructions are clear with detailed pictures to follow.

Clear and easy instructions, it has already taught me a bunch!

I was trying to learn a stitch in my beginner embroidery kit. The instructions included were not very clear to me. I started looking on the internet and could only find videos. I don’t learn well with videos. I need written instructions and pictures are nice. This book is great. It spelled out each step clearly with a picture for each step. Exactly what I was looking for and so helpful. There are probably over 150 stitches included in this book. I definitely recommend if you are new to embroidery.

Able to understand each stitch to follow. Great details, illustrations and colored pictures. Great for beginners .

very good info. added to my library.

I bought this book as a complete novice wanting to start embroidery but my friends who are advanced and very competent sewers have all thought that it is a good book for all levels. The book is well set out and easy to follow.

Lovely book. Very happy with detail.

Embroidery と書いてあったので、ステッチをたくさん期待していたら、かなりリボンを使うステッチが説明されていて、期待ハズレでした。リボンはリボンの本があるので、もっと刺繍糸だけでの説明が欲しかったです！

Nice book I have this one and the second one ! Clear explainations of all the possibile stitches with written instructions and pictures!

Gostei muito! Apesar de saber ler pouco em inglês. O livro tem boa ilustração que permitir o entendimento das instruções. Não é para iniciantes, precisar ter um louco de conhecimento.
