It Came! It Came! And WOW What a Book! A-Z of Goldwork Review
A-Z of Goldwork with Silk Embroidery was first published by Country Bumpkin in 2008, and that’s when my review below was written.
The book has recently been republished (2015) by Search Press, making it available more affordably to a wider audience.
The cover below is for the newly published A-Z of Goldwork with Silk Embroidery, but the contents of the book haven’t really changed. There are, I believe, a few minor corrections in the new 2015 edition, but other than that, the book is full of the same stellar instructional content. It’s a terrific book, suitable for beginners and beyond in goldwork and silk embroidery, and definitely a treasure you want to add to your needlework reference library!
