Book Reviews of Complete Guide to Needlework

Book Review: I wish there were more like this...
Summary: 5 Stars

If there were more craft books like this one, I wouldn't need so many craft books! This one has it ALL.

Yes, some have pointed out that the projects are somewhat dated. Published in 1979, the Complete Guide to Needlework is 6 years older than I am. However, if you're interested enough in crafting to even read it, you should be creative enough to improvise.

If there's a knit stitch or applique technique you just can't find, maybe it's in here. Trust me, it's all here. And with so many available used for under $1 on this site, it's a fantastic find.

Summary of Complete Guide to Needlework

Embroidery, needlepoint, knitting, appliqu?, quilting, patchwork, crochet, rug-making, macram?, and lacework-all taught through step-by-step instructions and photographs and drawings. A reference for the beginner and expert alike.
