Customer Reviews

wonderful book but needs sources listed outside Australia...

This author is undoubtedly incredibly talented in both her stitching and her ability to share her art through teaching. I particularly loved the extensive diagram layouts for each project. You get a very detailed and step by step breakdown, along with wonderful patterns for her projects. There is no "guessing" involved - and I will be using these templates and patterns in other projects as well - very user friendly to "pull out" certain stitches and details if you want to adapt this to other projects. I highly recommend this as a project book - the stitch glossery in the back of the book is easily understood by anyone with a working knowledge of embroidery stitches. However, if you are a beginner I assume her first book would be a better instruction manual. But the drawings of the stitches are very clear to the specific task at hand and I find them easy to follow. One oversight that I would appreciate being corrected in any further books by this author (and I would buy any further books in a heartbeat with or without this modification!!) is to include resource suppliers for other countries. One thing is certain, this author has a huge fan base in the usa and european countries, I am sure!!!! She is incredibly talented. She gives such precise information as to each project and the supplies, but sources are only for Australian readers. Actually, I think this is something that the publisher should have seen to, in the editing process. It would enable readers to get a quick contact for the supplies needed to start these beautiful projects!!!! Please write more books!!!!! I would be one of a long line I am sure to get any titles by this wonderful woman!!! Thank you for sharing your gift with all of us!!!
