  • Fantastic Book
I just purchased a machine to embroider and had zero knowledge. The book is well written and has chapters specifically on various kinds of stabilizers and when to use them, needles to use, and various hooping methods. She tells you why various fabrics are a problem and how to troubleshoot; what to try first, etc. She does not endorse any one product but lets you know what is available. Then there are specifics for each difficult material in their own chapters. It is a reference and resource book I will be going back to constantly. ... show more

  • Very Educational In a Fun Way
This is one of the best books on Machine Embroidery I have ever read. The book was in excellent condition (brand new) and at a great price. Because this book was exactly what it says "Difficult Materials", I have been able to do machine embroidery on materials I never thought possible.

  • Great reference book
My cousin told me about this book. It is a wonderful reference for anyone doing machine embroidery for personal or business. I keep it next to my machines. I really like the needle and stabilization guide. This will save you from buying too many specialty stabilizers. I wish I would have had the book 4 years ago, when I started. Embroidery. ... show more

  • Good reference
I guess I am not sure what I was expecting so I'm not sure I can really review this book very well. I do believe it is an excellent reference guide for materials, stabilizers, needles, and threads which may come in handy in the future. Not much on patterns or ideas that I remember. I honestly flipped through the book a couple of times, but not one I've spent a lot of time in reading. ... show more

  • A great reference to those of us new to machine embroidery!
This is a fabulous lift along the learning curve for anyone new to the wonders of machine embroidery. It is well illustrated, easy to understand and is a great value. Really a "must have" for folk just bitten by the fiber art bug.

  • Great book with lots of info for a newbie like me
Lots of good info for a new machine embroiderer like myself. Clearly stated with good pictures. At the back is a set of tables with concise info - needles, thread, etc. Definitely a book I'll be going back to time and again.
