Just in case you haven’t seen it yet, there’s another wonderful review of Portuguese Whitework today over at Pintangle. Sharon says she spent the weekend drooling over the book. I hope it didn’t get too soggy! A little excerpt from the review: “Everything is clearly explained. The acid test for me is how well an [...] If you haven’t yet been caught up in the excitement of my new book, head on over to the website of one of my biggest US fans – that would be Mary Corbet’s Needle’nThread! – and get yourself on the list to possibly win a copy of my new book “Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from [...] In the comments sections of Mary Corbet’s last two posts, one a review of my Portuguese Whitework book, and the other about left-handed Schwalm embroidery, there have been lots of lovely things said about my books.

I had a lovely surprise yesterday when I found three new reviews for The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion on Amazon.com. The most glowing one is from Janet Wright: Wow!!!! I have finally found the perfect embroidery book. I am [...] I heard from the wonderful Barb Suess yesterday that she’d recently been teaching at an EGA seminar and my stitch dictionaries The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion and The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion were disappearing very quickly from Ruth Kern Books. (I don’t think she meant that they were being shoplifted, either…) This is music to my ears. [...] Time for a round up of new reviews of my books today. From Amazon US, we have… Review by Claire Nardone on The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion: I’ve been doing needlework of all types for more than 40 years and this is the best all around handbook I’ve ever seen. Details are wonderful and it [...] Yesterday I spent the day trying to finish stitching the drawn thread work base for my Portuguese whitework tablecloth for the book.
