  • Good to get you started Good to get you started
Format: Paperback
The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because you may need to go to YouTube for further explanations. It has pretty clear instructions and has a wonderful legend by every stitch to tell you the best application for that particular stitch (outlines, fill stitches, leaves, letters). The Turkey Stitch is categorized under the section of Needlepoint stitches (a 3D stitch made with loops, looking like shag rug once you trim it). Always practice a new stitch first on a scrap piece of fabric. ... show more

  • Great for learning the stitches
Format: Paperback
This book is perfect. I am new to embroidery and have wanted to learn new stitches. The step-by-step visuals are wonderful. Some other books I have looked at have visuals that are impossible for me to follow…..I am not the best at 3D visualization. This is a book I will use for a long time.
