I bought this book to brush up on my crewel work. I found the pictures and explanations of the stitches quite poor. One stitch I have forgotten and cannot remember it by the lack of detail in the instructions. Also, many stitches are missing,a beginner should look for a better book. The pictures of completed works are very nice and once you learn the stitches should be easy for a beginner. This part is worth the price of the book.

This is definately a fantastic book for beginners looking at starting this craft. The book gives you a clear description of the tools you should look at obtaining, then with an embroidery hoop I completed my first piece in two evenings and it looks great! It doesn’t have a lot of designs, but has all the basic stitches (step by step) and plenty of inspiration. One design is worked in three different colour combinations and stitch styles giving you all the background you need to start off with Crewel Embroidery.

I really want to emphasise the title. Very basic but equally effective and the projects grow quickly. After you master these I would suggest the A-Z of Crewel Emroidery from Country Bumpkin – more projects and techniques but you’ll have the basics already! Definitely worth the price of the book to get you started.

A very good guide for the beginner or even intermediate embroiderers. A very detailed step-by-step instructions, a very good guide for the materials. Although I could have done with one of the more intricate pattern in the book all the floral pattern are just beautiful and very inspiring. A good start for crewel embroidery and jacobean style.

the book enable anyone , even those who are not familiar with crewel embroidery, to easily learn and master the art. The instructions are easy to understand and to follow and the book itself is pleasant to look at and to read
