its going to happen

Well, you’re the first to know it: “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion: a step-by-step stitch dictionary” is underway.

I heard the jealous cries of the right-handers who want their own version of my stitch dictionary. I also heard the happy ravings (and I mean that in the nicest possible way!) of the left-handers who love theirs so much, and thought that its a pity for right-handers to miss out on that joy.

As I began work on it, I realised that there really is not so terribly much to do on it (not as much as a completely new book, anyway!). So it seemed to me to be silly not to do it.

So right-handers, some time later this year, “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion” should be available, thereby making you happy ever after. 🙂

Of course, more details will be forthcoming as soon as they are available. And if all goes according to plan, it’ll be out well before the end of the year.
