I’ve just added a whole pile more book reviews of my books to the book reviews<\/a> page on my website.<\/p>\n

There are many, many new reviews there, and if you’re looking for a new embroidery book, read my book reviews page first!<\/p>\n

A few samples of the reviews for you:<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nThe Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion<\/a>:
\n“Other embroidery books MIGHT have a section for left handed embroiderers, but usually only basic stitches are presented. This book is a treasure trove of stitches that we left handed stitchers can now learn to do the correct way. It is the best embroidery book that I own. The steps are all pictured clearly and are easy to follow. THANK YOU Yvette Stanton for recognizing the need and creating this embroiderer’s bible. W.S. Massachusetts<\/em>”<\/p>\n

\nThe Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion<\/a>:
\n“This book was given first as a gift to me. I then bought it to give to my needlework school as it was amazing. I think it is the best book on the market for this subject. I use it frequently. Instructions are clear. Excellent pictures. For anyone who does needlework this is an absolute must. Linda Ingham<\/em>”<\/p>\n

\nPortuguese Whitework: Bullion Embroidery from Guimar\u00e3es<\/a>:
\n“The techniques for this beautiful form of whitework are well illustrated and explained as always in Stanton’s books with step-by step photos and written instructions. Best of all, all materials are easily obtainable and the projects cover a range from beginner to advanced so mastering this lovely form of whitework will be a snap for even a novice embroiderer. Another highly recommended book from Stanton. Lovely pictures, inspiring techniques and projects, clear and understandable instructions for the visual and the word focused learner -what more could any crafter ask? Highly recommended. A. McPherson, Utah<\/em>”<\/p>\n

\nElegant Hardanger Embroidery<\/a>:
\n“I bought this book as a gift for a friend who is a relative beginner at Hardanger – she found it so useful and the instructions so clear that I bought a second copy for myself. In addition to the basic techniques there are helpful tips not found in other books plus some delightful projects. C. J. Kilby, France<\/em>”<\/p>\n
