If you’re into needlepoint then you’ve probably already read this review. That’s because Nuts about Needlepoint<\/a> is the<\/strong> blog to follow if you’re a needlepointer. It also happens that its author, Janet M. Perry, is left-handed. She kindly agreed to review my book The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s some of what Janet had to say:<\/p>\n

I am so delighted with the care and attention to detail present in this book. It\u2019s beautiful, but very practical. With it I feel more confident to try stitches and techniques that have eluded me in the past.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

She also said:<\/p>\n

For every stitch I know I checked the instructions and they were exactly the way I do these stitches. I also checked several of the stitches against the ones in The Embroidery Stitch Bible and, sure enough, the illustrations in that book matched the right-handed illustrations in Stanton\u2019s book.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I find this interesting as I’ve never knowingly seen a copy of The Embroidery Stitch Bible. Must be a case of great minds think alike! (wink!)<\/p>\n

I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading the rest of the review here<\/a>. And you’re highly likely to find other things of interest at Janet’s blog!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
