Customer Reviews

This book is afful

Bad pictures, big and clunky to use. I can get better info online. I wish I had not bought it. I threw it in the trash.

Great learning book!

I love this book. It is a great book to learn by. Very easy to follow! I've learned a lot of new stitches with this book!

Great Book!

This book is well stocked with information! Many sample projects included as well as a separate guide in the back of the book for all kinds of stitches. Very easy to follow. Invaluable.

AN EXCELLENT REFERENCE GUIDE!!

I teach a needlwork program at an arts & crafts store that is a part of a national chain. This book covers everything under the sun and then some. My students love it and the patterns that are included are great.I highly recommmend this book to anyone who is interested in any type of needlework; it will teach you things you've never even seen before!

Indispensable!

Absolutely beautiful, thorough, well-researched book. There are a lot of needlework encyclopedias out there, but this one gets my vote for the lucid, readable text and the clear photos that illustrate each stitch. The projects that are charted out in the book are lovely, too... they show the kind of quality I have come to expect from anything that has Donna Kooler's name on it. This is a book that no serious needleworker should be without. Well worth the price, and it's a joy to own.

Donna Kooler's Encyclopedia of Needlework

This book is one of the best needlework books on the market. The stitch diagrams cover needlepoint, cross stitch and embroidery and includes information on fabric, canvas, fibers and embellishments. I would recommend this book to stitchers of all levels!
