This informative book not only tells how to execute stitches but reduces needlework stitches to a few simple stitch groups and explains how to use them most effectively. Dealing with each stitch group in turn, the author examines its effect on an embroidery - its texture, its ability to reflect light, its placement, and its relationship to the embroidery's background.
