Embroidery has a reputation for requiring skill, patience and artistic inspiration, something that was done by gentlewomen in centuries pastBut The Essential Guide to Embroidery dispels this myth, its clear, concise instructions making it available to all who can spare the time to learn how. Cross stitch, beadwork, crewel work, ribbon work and whitework are just a few of the types of embroidery looked at. Each section is prefaced by its history followed by methods and stitches and finally stunning projects to work oneself. Gloriously illustrated with sumptuous colour photographs of needlework from the past together with finished projects, the book will inspire all with a needlewoman's bent and is a welcome addition to books on this particular hobby. - Lucy Watson
