Yes, that’s a REAL book in the photo above. Its not a version of the digital file from which the cover was printed. Its the real deal!
So I’m even more excited today as the advance copies of The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion have arrived! I was unsure that I was going to be home when the courier came, but fortunately I missed my bus and was therefore home when he came!
I’m so pleased with them. I am really happy with the weight of the cover, and with the weight of the pages. The printing is beautiful as always, and I haven’t found any mistakes yet…
The bulk of the copies will ship from the printers in the next week or so probably, then they’ll be off in large shipments to Australia, the US and the UK. From there, they’ll go on their merry way to shops around the world, ready for you to buy, around January. And you can also preorder The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion from Vetty Creations already.
I’m so happy!

How exciting! Hope it sells like hotcakes, Yvette!=)
Thanks Elizabeth! I recognise your photo from Stitchin Fingers. Is that right?
I am so excited about this! I'm new to the joys of embroidery and left handed so will look forward to getting a copy 🙂
Congratulations on the publication of your wonderful (and sorely needed for left-handers!) book. It looks beautiful in the photo and I can't wait to receive the copy I ordered from you in October to begin stitching away!
