I am often asked by quilters which how to books would I recommend. This became very important at Mrs Martin’s Stitching at St. George, when we were working on a particular embroidery that used woven spider web roses. Generally, I recommend the A-Z of Embroidery, put out by Country Bumpkin, to people who are new to stitching. So imagine my surprise when I discovered that this particular stitch was not in that book. The other book that I use is the Mary Thomas’s book. This book is not so easy to locate at the moment, but it is quite comprehensive. I have included links to the Amazon pages for both these books.
What books do you use? Please reply in the comments.
Thank you so much for the lovely comment that you left on my blog. It was wonderful to catch up with you at the fair.
