This book is great for beginner in that Debra Valencia gives a basic overview of the tools and materials used in embroidery, and includes some helpful tips as well. Her embroidery stitch guide gives step by step, detailed descriptions of creating a variety of stitches supported by photographs that clearly depict stitch construction. The 25 projects are contemporary, and are divided into four groups: hoops and frames, home décor, accessories and clothing. While they won't all be for everyone, there is something for most everyone.
I received a copy of the book from Fox Chapel Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. This advanced copy did not include the project templates or the alphabet patterns, so I cannot address the ease with which these features are used, but considering the high quality of the other features, I am sure these are more than adequate. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review, and received no monetary compensation.
