Willing Hands – Full of Great Embroidery Finishes
Good morning, and Happy Wednesday! It’s a good day for a book review, methinks.
The book I’m going to review today has been in my reading stack for a while. It’s been on the market since last autumn, and perhaps many of you – especially if you are counted cross stitchers – already have it. It’s a book chock-full of finishes.
The book is Willing Hands: The Counted Thread Embroidery of Betsy Morgan. And even though Willing Hands concentrates on counted thread techniques, I don’t see it so much as a counted thread technique book. Instead, I see it as a book that overflows with fabulous ideas for finishing embroidery into useful and beautiful needlework accessories.
Let’s take a look at the book and then chat about how it is a universally useful book for embroiderers of every discipline.
