With contributions from well known embroiderers who are particularly interested in stitchery, this collection of articles is a superb introduction to the riches of stitches.
Originally written for the 1994 Spring issue of the Young Textile Group (now Young Embroiderers) newsletter, these articles will also be of interest to the not so young embroiderer who is a beginner wanting to know more about stitches.
The Riches of Stitches is out of print, but is available as a PDF to download (1.6MB). If you have the Acrobat Reader 3.0 plug-in, you can download The Riches of Stitches now.
If you need to obtain the plug-in, go to the Adobe web site, where versions for several different platforms are available to download free. You might want to bookmark this page before leaving.
