Marc Notes: - Stitches. A comprehensive list of stitches, including dozens needed for projects of all levels. If you prefer to embroider by hand this book is for you. You'll also learn a lot of other techniques to master embroidery, from beginning and ending a thread to how to paint thread and using hoops. This is just the beginning of why so many people recommend Embroidery Stitches. Keep in mind that there's also Embroidery Stitches 2 available, so if you like this one, you can always go a step further and get the second book in the series. Embroidery Stitches is easy to read, and this may be one of the book's key selling points. I recommend every embroider have a copy of this book on their shelves as a reference guide for the many stitches available in embroidery. Quilter's Review (Aug 2018) "Defined here as a way of altering a surface with stitches, embroidery in all its richness and variety is presented in this alphabetically arranged guide to a wealth of stitches available to the needle crafter. Thread, needles, and fabric are the triumvirate of necessary materials required for all embroidery projects, and an introductory discussion of those factors is joined by commentary on transferring design onto fabric. Once these important preliminary issues are cleared, then the meat of the book is offered: the stitches themselves, from simple to complicated. The thing to realize about this book is that every stitch is afforded clear and detailed textual directions augmented by exquisitely clear photographs."
