If you are a fan, or are new to Judith Baker Montano, you won't want to miss her latest book "Judith Baker Montano's Essential Stitch Guide". This book is exactlywhat it says...an essential stitch guide. Montano has combined over 180 stitches and 70 stitch combinations found in her two previous books, "The Best of Elegant Stitches" and "Floral Stitches" into one easy to carry with you book. For those of you just starting your embroidery journey you will find a wealth of information on getting started with the basics. Subjects range from fabrics, needles, overlays, threads and embroidery techniques such as Silk-Ribbon embroidery, Punchneedle embroidery to working with beads and using other mixed media to create the mood for your piece. You will also learn about the proper way to insert your fabric in a hoop as well as how to transfer and enlarge designs. Finally there is also a section on washing your finished work and blocking and pressing. Judith urges you to "think like a painter" when designing your own work. How to use color to its best advantage and the best methods to compose your piece are also covered. With 180 stitches you will have an encyclopedia of stitches to choose from. Every stitch is illustrated and the instructions are easy to understand. I enjoyed reading the Crazy-Quilt Combinations chapter. In this she combines several different stitches to create and repetitive design to work along a seam line. They could also be used to decorate any number of projects. Of course I would be remiss if I failed to mention the Free-Form Embroidery chapter. Here is where all your stitching skills are put to the test creating needle art collages. You will combine everything you have just read in the book to create a beautiful piece of work such as a landscape or a seascape or just add dimension to a project you have already started. I am pleased to add this book to my collection of Judith Baker Montano's books, I am sure you will be as well.

    It arrived intact with wonderful protective wrapping on the package, only a minor mishap on the original manufacturer's behalf where I needed to contact them for a cracked spout that leaked, but this seller helped me when I reached out with my situation and gave friendly instructions to get restituted on my purchase.

    Essential Stitch Guide

    This has so many embroidery stitches that I have never seen or done before. The instructions for these are very clear and should be easy enough to master. Gave "good" rather than "excellent" because the cover on the book is way to thin and will tear easily.

    book arrived in great condition, and fast

    it is a great book; my only disappointment is that i already have Judith's other 2 books, Floral Stitches and Elegant Stitches, and it seems this Essential Stitch Guide is basically a combination of the two books i already have. That is my own fault, i guess, i should have read her description a little more closely. I am sure i will find someone who will buy it from me.
