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 […] This story was told to me possibly third hand, so I’m not completely sure of its accuracy, but its a good story anyway! A family friend was recently at her local embroidery shop, just having a quiet browse. I know the shop in question, and its a lovely shop to have a quiet browse in! […] I had a wonderful day yesterday teaching merezhka to a lovely group of ladies in Springwood. They did a great job and produced some beautiful embroidery. A couple of the ladies in the group had already bought my book Ukrainian Drawn Thread Embroidery and worked the large scale sampler (we were doing a project of […] The other day I received my copy of the latest issue of Embellish magazine.

Here in our house, and probably many others, it is common practice for various family members to affix a list of Christmas present […] A new review of The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion has been published by Karen Platt. An excerpt: As with all Yvette’s books it has superb attention to detail… This has just become my number one embroidery book. You can read the full review on Karen’s website, and you can purchase your copy from your favourite needlework […] With its recent release, the reviews for The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion are starting to flow. On Amazon.co.uk, I found two reviews. An excerpt from the first review: The diagrams are really clear and along with the clearly written instructions it is almost as good as having one-to-one tuition. Acon “Crafter” And from the second review: […] Well. I’m still a bit bereft of ideas for how to work the lily bud. Looking at the whole design, I think it needs to be a thin outline (perhaps), with a light filling.
