left-handed book reader reviews

Recently I received the following comment from RM of England about my book The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion:

Hello Yvette, Just thought I’d let you know I found your LH Companion at the London Bead Company and bought it. Its wonderful and just looking at the instructions I could follow them straight away. Unless you are left-handed its difficult to explain to folk just how hard it can be to have to constantly turn everything round in your mind, for someone who is bordering dyslexic its a nightmare.

And from YD in Queensland, also about The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion:

My copy arrived yesterday. Am so thrilled to have pictures that show the needle pointing to the right (and not the left). The illustrations demonstrating finger positions etc. will be most helpful. Thank you.

Went to a QCWA meeting today. Couldn’t resist taking my new book along to show the ladies – although there are no other left handed crafters among them, a couple said that they had friends who were left handed and had difficulty following instructions. Will pass on your mailing address in case they would like to order the book for themselves.

Thank you to RM and YD – I love hearing from you, and am glad that you are so pleased with The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion.

If you are left-handed, or know someone who is left-handed, why not purchase your copy of The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion today? Ask for it at your local needlework store, and if they don’t already have it, ask them to get it in for you! It might help them if you give the ISBN: 9780975767733.

You can also purchase it directly from Vetty Creations.

    Hello~ I just purchased the Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion as well. One of my EGA guild members owns “Inspired Needle”. She saw it at Market and bought it knowing I’d want it. I’m recommending for anyone who teaches and thrilled to have my own copy.
