Mary Corbet, from Needle’nThread has done it again – a glowing review of my latest book, Portuguese Whitework! Her reviews are so terribly thorough that probably all your questions will have been answered in one go! Some excerpts from Mary’s review: Well, here it is! Yvette Stanton’s new hand embroidery book, Portuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery […] I received a message yesterday from a friend of mine, Melody Lord, saying that she had received the advance copy of her new book Knitting Basics. I’ve known Melody since I was a teenager. We lost contact for some years, then found each other again through craft publishing links. Melody worked for many years as […] Yesterday the review we’ve all been waiting for went up on Needle’nThread: Mary Corbet’s review of “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion”! Thank you Mary, for such a lovely review! Both The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion and The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion would make excellent Christmas presents to yourself, that friend who enjoys embroidery, or that young person who […] Periodically I go to various book-selling websites and check out what people are saying 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 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. I really hoped I’d get that part done, but time got away. Maybe I’ll get it done today. And while that will feel like an achievement of sorts, then I have to embark […] When we were away on our little break over Easter, I bought a book called “Roberto Capucci: Art into Fashion”. First impression: WOW! This is a book filled with images of incredible fashion creations. The colour and form of the dresses was simply amazing. My second realisation about the book was that it an exhibition […] Recently I found some lovely reviews of my stitch dictionaries at Amy’s Golden Strand, the website of Amy Bunger. About The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion, Judy Rogers and Jill Wilensky commented: As a left-hander, learning how to do some of the more complex stitches is not as simple as just “flipping” the diagrams and substituting […] In the past week I have had not one, but three very nice reviews of my book Elegant Hardanger Embroidery sent to me. It has been lovely reading people’s comments about why they love the book so much. I wrote it 10 years ago now, which seems pretty mindboggling, actually. (I’ve been writing books for […] |
