Michael T. ★★★★★

The glossary of needlepoint terms alone cleared up half the confusion I've had for years, and the thread pairing notes actually tell you which fiber works for each decorative stitch. It's the book I keep pulling off the shelf mid-project.

Avery ★★★★★

I was stuck on a tricky decorative stitch and this book had clear diagrams and thread suggestions that saved my project. Perfect for any stitcher's library.

Carter ★★★★★

The glossary of needlepoint terms alone cleared up three things I'd been guessing at for months. I keep it next to my stitching chair now and reach for it whenever I'm picking threads for a decorative stitch. Genuinely useful reference.
