Mary Thomas's Dictionary of Embroidery Stitches

By Thomas, Mary Edith & Eaton, Jan

Publishers Summary:
For all embroiderers, a needlework classic. Now in paperback. Mary Thomas' Dictionary of Embroidery Stitches was first published in 1934; regarded as a standard, this book has long been a favorite of novice and experienced embroiderers alike. Later updated by Jan Eaton, it pictures and describes over 400 stitches; arranged by usage, they range from basic outline and border stitches to more complex detached-filling and pulled-fabric stitches. Throughout, more than 100 color photos show the stitches worked in sampler form, while individual diagrams, color-linked to the photos, illustrate the working method for each stitch. An outstanding reference book that will enable all needleworkers to master the art of embroidery. Jan Eaton is the author of Creative Guide to Cross Stitch Embroidery and Around the World in Cross Stitch. 298 pp 9 x 10 110 color photos, two-color diagrams throughout
