Vintage Needlework Books – On Sale through November!

 

Amazon Books

If you’re looking for vintage needlework books – for embroidery, crochet, beadwork, bag making, you name it – you can find a huge assortment of them, all digitally remastered, from Iva Rose Productions. The Carmela Testa books on cut work are a great resource if you like whitework, and the Butterick collection books (such as “Fancy Stitches” and “The Art of Drawnwork”) are great for any embroiderer’s bookshelf. But the real reason I’m posting this notice now is that through the end of November, Iva Rose Productions is offering half price on all their books! Now, that’s a good deal!
