Teach Yourself Needlecraft is an excellent guide for beginners and an encyclopaedia of information for the more experienced stitcher. The large full-colour format allows greater visual flexibility and range.

By taking a step-by-step approach, the book includes projects to master the arts of embroidery, needlepoint, Bargello and cross-stitch. The beauty of Teach Yourself Needlecraft is its ability to show you how to design your own patterns by drawing on whatever inspires you – be it an ancient work of art or the colour of autumn leaves.

Jane McMorland Hunter, the author, studied design at Goldsmith’s College. As well as specialising in needlework, she is a potter and quilter. She has exhibited in London and regionally. It is her ambition to make needlecraft accessible to all.
