Fanned back : )

It's a really nice book - I only glanced at a few pages so they are crisp and the binding is like new. I also like the fact that the picture on the dust cover is also on the actually book.

My go-to book is a complete encyclopedia of all stitches. My grandmother started me out with x-stitch and it just grew from there. I've slowed down a lot because of carpal tunnel in both wrists up to my elbows. I wear gloves and do different things with my hands when they hurt. Like crochet - another one of my favorite crafts : )

Fanned back!

The thing about any stitching is you are usually the only one who knows where the mistakes are.

Nice book! What is your go to book-maybe l could find on line...fanned and watching! =^..^=

It's called The Complete Illustrated Stitch Encyclopedia by Crafter's Choice. The fancy embroidery stitches are shown in detail. It might be out-dated with all the new techniques such as felting and punch needle are not included.

Those things are the ones l'm not worried about--l'm old school cross stitch. Thanks for the info! Keeping an eye on it... =^..^=

I love to do all kinds of crafts. I used to make a goal for myself to learn at least one new technique every year. That's why I have so many craft items for my auctions.

I completed my first real plastic canvas project-not just the little stuff but a multi piece hanging-proud of it! I crochet too, but hands too achey for threadwork anymore-l love afghans but l cant afford the yarn. Thank God for Listia for supplies and patterns!! =^..^=

Good for you on your accomplishment!

I wear those gloves for crafting and they seem to help my hands. Also, switching up on projects which require different movements is also a great help.

Last afghan I made was almost a king size. I received a bunch of yarn from my step-dad's sister - mostly Caron Simply soft - that I would like to list but I cannot afford the shipping because it is too bulky. I wish I knew someone with a vacuum & seal then I could reduce the size of the packaging.

I used to love doing doilies and such but cross stitch is my fav-but plastic canvas is climbing as a result of that one project! =^..^=

Sep 16th, 2015 at 4:45:46 AM PDT by

I'm making some doilies from vintage patterns right now. Have you ever tried crocheting with 30 thread? It's like crocheting with sewing thread!

By the way-l have a vaccuum thingy ( wink wink ) for the yarn-my BF swears by it! =^..^=

I will check into the cost of getting one.
