5.0 out of 5 stars Like to stitch, 30 Jul 2008

By	Ms. Ma Royals - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a refreshing change from traditional embroidery books. It's modern and inspiring. Ideal for beginners. It concentrates on about 18 basic stitches to create a range of designs. No counting or measuring. Lot's of clear and bright photographs and only minimum equipment required. I can't wait to get started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 1 Sep 2008

By	Jeannine Parfitt (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this book. The stitches used are simple yet effective, and are well explained. The designs are wonderful. Fresh, vibrant, trendy, inovative yet timeless. The artist is talented and I look forward to any other offerings from her. Even though I am not fantastically gifted at embroidery (especially satin stitch), the projects are inspirational and yet remain undaunting. It's a traditional craft brought bang-up-to-date.

5.0 out of 5 stars Embroidery for the fearful beginner!, 4 Nov 2008

By	S. Woosnam "So little shelf space so many books!" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Doodle Stitching: Fresh and Fun Embroidery for Beginners

I have always wanted to embroider & have never been brave enough.I bought this book after reading the amazon reviews I was not disappointed it's fab! The stitches are presented clear & colourful. I loved that the projects are simple but also that they are inspiring, you really think I could do that, what's more I could add a bit of this and....I particularily liked the fireworks design on the halter top as it's a simple way to customise clothes & the cute softie owl & racoon. If you don't know where to begin by this you won't regret it!
