Great For Learning Crazy Quilt Stitches5
This book was exactly what I was looking for, it teaches you many different basic stitches and then later in the book combines them together to make great looking designs. It also has a small section on embroidering with ribbons which is really nice. It shows you how to make flowers, birds and even a spider web with a spider attached. If you haven't done much embroidery and are looking for a book to show you how to get started this is the one for you. Happy Quilting.

Excellent for the price4
It shows in colorful detail, over 100 stitches used for the typical crazy quilt. The instructions are easy to read, and easy to learn. I recommend it for all beginning Crazy Quilters.

Exactly what I was looking for!5
I had finished piecing my first crazy quilt and only knew about two embroidery stitches with which to embellish it...of all the books that said they were "the one" I chose this one, and it was PERFECT. Each stitch, no matter how complex, is broken down into simple stitches and explained, so not only did I add feather stitches, I made vines and flowers and butterflies! This book is perfect for the beginner who wants her project to look like she's not a beginner!
