reviewed on + 1568 more book reviews


This is a Rodale-published book. It gives an excellent overview of eight different needle crafts, with comments about some related crafts as well. Extensive color photos and clear diagrams with excellent instructions or patterns accompany the projects in each section. This is no flimsy give-away brochure; it's a 240-page hardback.
Chapter titles include Appliqué, Crochet, Cross-Stitch, Duplicate Stitch, Knitting, Embroidery, Patchwork Quilting, and Plastic Canvas Needlepoint.
