Book Reviews of An Introduction to Hardanger Embroidery

Book Review: A wonderful intricate heirloom for every generation.
Summary: 4 Stars

"An Introduction to Hardanger Embroidery" brings forth the elegant heirloom of Hardanger onto the fingertips of its reader, through its captivating photos and informative pages. This book is weaved with threads of easy and simple instructions that will encourage not only the experienced yet the beginning needleworker as well. "An Introduction to Hardanger Embroidery" explains in a simple and concise way, the different materials and threads needed to make a plain cloth into a delicate work of art. Hardanger is an heirloom craft that was brought down from our ancestral generation to their progeny, and its craft is now withering into the books of craft history. This craft brings out intricate lace-like work that is simple and enjoyable for the young and old alike. I find this book a wonderful asset which will encourage the young generation to cherish this craft, along with those crafters who would like to bring forth this wonderful heirloom back into the delicate hands of each generation to come.
