Needlepoint: A Modern Stitch Directory

The book that started it all. Needlepoint: A Modern Stitch Directory by Emma Homent is the essential reference guide for needlepointers at every level, from curious beginners picking up a needle for the first time to experienced stitchers ready to take their work to a whole new level of texture and detail.

Packed with over 100 decorative stitches and techniques, each demonstrated with clear photos and step-by-step diagrams, this book opens up a world of needlepoint that goes far beyond tent stitch and cross stitch.

Beyond the stitch directory, you'll find everything you need to get started: guidance on tools and materials, how to organize your threads, how to frame up your canvas, and 10 beginner-friendly projects with full-color charts.
