### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Interesting Book
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 28, 2022*

This is an interesting book in the sense that it is recent (2014) and it presents the main hand embroidery stitches and their possible variations in a modern colorful way, with nice large photographs.I do find, however, that it tends to come from the quilting and patchwork angle, for embellishment and decoration, rather than hand embroidery by itself. I happen to not be into quilting, so I see this as a little drawback, but others might think the book is exactly what they have been looking for.As far as the number of stitches and their variations, it is good but not at as complete as the indispensable “The Constance Howard Book of Stitches” published in 1979, with unfortunately only black and white pictures.To summarize: this is a nice updated stitch presentation. It has a good introduction about supplies and a last page, mentioning suppliers as well as textile artist’s websites to admire.I have many embroidery books and I will keep this one, mostly for its lovely modern, colorful pictures.

    A magical, must-have book. Not your usual stitch book.
  

*by S***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 1, 2015*

I have been a hand stitcher all my life (I am now in my eighties), and of course I have lots of stitch books, but I have never met a book like this!I hesitated to buy yet another stitch book, but this one sounded interesting, so I went ahead and ordered it, and I am so glad I did. Ruth Chandler has grouped the stitches in her book by how they are made, straight, cross etc. One stitch to each left-facing page, with clear photographed instructions on how to make each stitch. The real magic comes on each right-facing page, where she shows all sorts of different ways to use the stitch. These pages are in full color, absolutely gorgeous, and really inspiring. I can't wait to find places to use these beautiful designs.Thank you Ruth.
