Title: Not For Beginners
Review: Don't let the title fool you - this book is not for beginners. I was expecting a sampler or sample page of various types of stitches along with their names and step by step instructions on how to create the stitches. Instead, I got a book that shows a number of different projects that showcase a specific letter of the alphabet - all 26 of them - A-Z. An attempt is made to match each letter of the alphabet with a flower and create a piece that showcases that flower. The index lists a total of 18 stitches amongst all of the flower names. Unfortunately, you will have to leaf through the book to look at each stitch to see if it is the one you want to learn how to make. The instructions are then sketchy at best, sometimes showing only the completed stitch and how a number of them combine to make the flower. I am selling my book.
