The Needlepoint Book: A Complete Update of the Classic Guide

by: Jo Ippolito Christensen
I purchased the first edition when I was learning to needlepoint. Now many years and moves later, I found the book was missing just when I wanted to start to needlepoint again. All I could remember was the green and yellow cover. No author name. No title. No publisher. What to do? Try Amazon.com. It was the first needlepoint book that came up. I remembered the author's name immediately when I saw it. What joy to find I can purchase an updated version of my lost treasure! This book is everything previous reviewers have stated.

101 Needlepoint Stitches and How to Use Them: Fully Illustrated with Photographs and Diagrams

by: Hope Hanley
Good reference book to have for needlepoint stitches. Samples of the completed stitch are OK; they are black and white photo's making it difficult to see the detail; but the explanation of how to do the stitch is great. Good reference book for needlepointers.

Needlepoint Stitches: 52 Stitches Explained and Illustrated

by: Susan Higginson
Though this book is not exhaustive like other similar titles, I really like what is in the book. The pictures are very clear; I think what I like most is that the pictures are in color. It makes it far easier to see the stitches and how the resulting stitches will look once finished. It is a very good reference and addition to my library.
