I was very pleased

Goes into great detail, and I got some great design ideas, too.

Magnificent, inspirational and easy to follow.

This book is a feast for embroiderers be they new to the art or experienced stitchers. It allows you to see how projects can be worked with a whole new slant, using a multitude of threads and fabrics. You can set about designing your own projects using similar techniques, proving that experimentation can be fun and successful. A must have for needlewomen!!
